Chelsea legend Joe Cole says the club should do everything to secure Joao Felix in the summer.

The Blues have Felix on loan from Atletico Madrid until the end of the season.

However, there is no buy option in the deal, which means they must negotiate a fee with Atleti.

On BT Sport, Cole said: “I'm a big fan of Felix – at Atletico Madrid, with their style of play, he was a fish in the wrong pond there.

“I saw enough, on his debut against Fulham, to think that Chelsea should be on the phone to his agent, trying to get that deal done. He looks a top player, with his best years ahead of him.

“People were so excited when Chelsea spent all that money on Enzo Fernandez and Mykhaylo Mudryk that they almost forgot about Felix while he was serving his ban.

“I'm not sure if he's a No.9 or a No.10 – he could be a nine-and-a-half – but he looks quick, powerful, scores goals and plays off the cuff. They should get in him full-time if they can."
