AC Milan<\/a> have decided against making Joao Felix<\/a>’s move permanent in the summer after the forward’s underwhelming start to life in Italy.<\/p>\n

Felix completed a loan switch from Chelsea<\/a> to Milan towards the end of the January transfer window in the hope of getting his stuttering career back on track.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old attacking midfielder had failed to win over Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge, making a total of just three starts in the Premier League<\/a> in the first half of the season.<\/p>\n

Felix went on to enjoy a dream debut with Milan, finding the net in the side’s 3-1 victory over Roma in the Coppa Italia just 24 hours after being unveiled by the Rossoneri.<\/p>\n

But Felix has flattered to deceive in the intervening weeks and is still yet to register a single goal or assist in the Italian top flight under Sergio Conceicao. <\/p>\n

The Portugal international also proved ineffective as Milan were dumped out of the Champions League at the round-of-16 stage at hands of Feyenoord.<\/p>\n

La Gazzetta dello Sport<\/a> write that it is perhaps ‘unfair to put too much responsibility’ on Felix since the player ‘found himself in an environment consumed by all kinds of problems’ at the San Siro.<\/p>\n

It’s claimed Felix ‘cannot be classified as a flop’, though Milan had hoped more of an impact from a player of his talent and potential, regardless of his uninspiring start to the campaign in England with Chelsea.<\/p>\n

However, the report adds that Milan’s hierarchy have come to the conclusion that the move is not working and Felix’s journey from London to Milan ‘will not be a one-way ticket’. <\/p>\n

It remains uncertain what Chelsea have planned for Felix when the attacker’s loan agreement with Milan comes to an end in June.<\/p>\n
