Benfica coach Bruno Lager was interviewed by the media and was asked about the rumors that Felix returned to Benfica.
Lager said: "We have been talking about Felix since he left Benfica, and he is a special player for Benfica and me. He is on vacation now and may still be sleeping because he is on the other end of the earth."
Felix was loaned to Milan by Chelsea in the second half of last season, playing 3 goals and 1 assist in 21 games.
