Content: The 25-year-old forward is on Benfica's radar, though as club president Rui Costa and manager Bruno Lage have repeatedly emphasized, finalizing the move is no simple task.
Benfica are prepared to make a substantial financial effort, with the transfer fee potentially reaching the €30 million range. However, the player's salary remains a major hurdle—his wage demands far exceed Benfica's €4 million annual salary ceiling.
Félix, speaking at the funeral of teammate Jota, stated: “Bruno Lage as manager is a significant plus for my decision. I know him well; he's been important in my career, and I view a return to Benfica positively. Perhaps it's the direction I prefer. I feel the need to go home, so Benfica is one of the ideas in my mind.”
"Benfica is my home. I'll return one day—whether now or in a few years. If it's now, I'd be delighted. Everyone knows Benfica is the club in my heart. I will definitely come back, be it now or in the future."
