Breaking: Jamie Carragher Blasts Joao Felix For Aston Villa Snub In Fiery Chelsea Rant
Jamie Carragher has questioned Aston Villa transfer target Joao Felix as the Portuguese prepares to sign for Chelsea.
Felix is expected to have a medical in London on Tuesday ahead of signing a deal until 2030 at Stamford Bridge. The Atletico Madrid forward was Villa’s top target before the summer transfer window closes.
Speaking on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Carragher said: “Chelsea have just got to stop buying players, and players have got to stop signing for Chelsea. If I was a player, I’d think ‘why I would sign?’
“The only reason you would sign is because your agent might say, ‘we’re getting a seven-year deal on big money, that’s guaranteed money for seven years.
“You know what I would say? Back yourself, sign a four-year deal at a proper club. When you’re due for renewal, your money goes up anyway.
“It’s not a young and exciting team. They’ve bought Joao Felix, where’s he going to play? They signed Pedro Neto a week ago, where’s he going to play when you’ve got Cole Palmer already?”
“You want to ask about where Joao Felix is going to play, I’ve got another question – where’s he going to get changed at the training ground?” he added.
“How are all these players in one dressing room? How are you putting on a training session?”
