Chelsea fans have been reacting on social media after watching Joao Felix in action for Al Nassr.

Last week, it was confirmed that Felix's time as a Chelsea player came to a close as he moved to Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr.

The Portuguese made a total of 20 appearances for Enzo Maresca's side during the 24/25 season, scoring seven goals.

Felix was sent out on loan to AC Milan in January and has now been sold by the Stamford Bridge club, for a reported initial fee of €30 million.

On Thursday night, Felix was in action as Al Nassr took on Portuguese outfit Rio Ave in a pre-season friendly at the Estadio Algarve.

During what was a dominant display, Al Nassr came away 4-0 winners thanks to a hat-trick by Cristiano Ronaldo, plus a goal from Mohamed Simakan.

Taking to social media, Chelsea fans were discussing Felix's performance.

One fan said: "Joao Felix just enjoying himself."

Another tweeted: "Joao Felix 2 assists in 45mins talk now!"

A third fan added: "Cristiano Ronaldo is cooking with Joao Felix tonight."

Someone else wrote: "Joao Felix Add Ons Are Coming In…"

A fifth commented: "Joao Felix is back again, already had two assists with most chances created."

Speaking on the back of joining Al Nassr, Felix said: "I'm here to have fun and win together."

How did the media react to Joao Felix joining Al Nassr?

Reacting to Felix leaving European football for the Middle East, Lisbon-based journalist Marcus Alves said: "The feeling back home is that Felix has officially given up on being a truly top-level international player.

"Back in mid-2019, when Cristiano Ronaldo arrived at the Portugal camp for the Nations League finals, I remember seeing a headline on TV that said 'Ronaldo joins Felix'. Felix, not the team.

"That was no joke - it was just how highly rated Felix was at that time."

Meanwhile, Spanish football expert Guillem Balague said of Felix: "It doesn't seem there is any turning point for him.

"It drives coaches mad. They see the potential but he'll never fulfil it. It's a mental thing. It's not that he's not bothered - but he's not listening."
