Joao Felix was offered to Barcelona in the latter stages of the January transfer window. His agent, Jorge Mendes, contacted Barcelona's sporting director Deco and president Joan Laporta, but they turned down the offer. Felix's initial choice was Barcelona after spending last season on loan with them.

Joao Felix reportedly regrets his move to Chelsea and has been offered to Barcelona as a late loan option. El Nacional reported that Barcelona is considering Felix as they look into possible last-minute additions to their squad before the transfer window shuts. This situation arises as Felix looks for a new beginning following an unsatisfactory period with Chelsea, where he had initially aimed to make a significant impact. Barcelona's interest in Felix might offer him a chance to revive his career in La Liga, where he had previously demonstrated his skills with Atletico Madrid.
