Al Nassr reportedly pursues a unilateral Félix extension through summer 2029

Kooora, citing sources inside Al Nassr, reports the club is rushing to begin legal steps to activate a unilateral extension that would keep João Félix there through summer 2029. The report links the push to renewed Barcelona interest and says Félix’s agent, Jorge Mendes, had planned to use the end of the player’s mandatory period after this season, in summer 2027, to move him to Barcelona for free or a nominal fee. Activating the clause would mean a deferred 20 million euros to Chelsea, bringing the reported total transfer fee to 50 million euros, and an automatic rise in Félix’s annual salary from 10 million to 12.5 million euros. Al Nassr is still trying to resolve financial issues before telling the Saudi Pro League it is ready to provide guarantees ahead of the May deadline.
