Joao Felix insists Chelsea are under 'zero pressure' in their Champions League crunch-clash with Borussia Dortmund but casts doubt on his Blues future as he explains playing in the 'special competition' is important to him

Joao Felix has insisted Chelsea will be under ‘zero pressure’ on a defining European night — but hinted the Champions League could be pivotal to deciding his future beyond this season.

Felix, on loan at Chelsea from Atletico Madrid, spoke with the assuredness of the elite player he is ahead of tonight’s last-16 second leg against Borussia Dortmund at Stamford Bridge, in which Graham Potter’s side must overturn a 1-0 deficit.

Dortmund are second in the Bundesliga and have won 10 games in a row, including their first-leg victory over Chelsea at Signal Iduna Park three weeks ago.
