After terminating his contract with Benfica, Hugo Félix is waiting for the resolution of the bureaucratic process that should dictate his registration in the Portugal League on behalf of Tondela and, consequently, will make him official in the emblem recently promoted to the Portugal League. Until that happens, the player is temporarily a free player.
The 21-year-old midfielder terminated his contract with Benfica in order to avoid problems in his registration in the Portugal League, given that the remaining time for the end of the period in question did not allow the fruitful sending of all necessary documents.
Hugo Félix was practically closed with the Spaniards of Elche, which rose this sports season to the first level of Spanish football, but Tondela secured the advantage in the race for the Portuguese footballer and secured his signing.
The athlete, who was a long-standing desire of the team now led by Ivo Vieira, has not yet appeared on the latest list of registrants of the Portugal League. This is because Hugo Félix heads to the Beira emblem as a free player, after having terminated his contract with Benfica, thus there is no need to be registered by the closing time of the market. However, the reds kept 50% of the athlete's pass.
In 2025/26 the midfielder, who had a contract until June 2027, had not added any minute with the Sacred Mantle, either in the main team or in team B.
