Italian newspaper Tuttosport today brings an interesting story on the Chelsea forward Lucas Piazon.
The outlet claims that the Brazilian’s departure from the club is getting closer, as he’s not really happy with a lack of playing time with the Blues.
Piazon is reportedly tired of being loaned on six-month and season long deals with no long term projects, and would now have the doors open for a new type of transfer.
Tuttosport claims that the player isn’t keen on extending his deal with Chelsea, which is set to expire in 2020, and has recently changed agents, now working with Federico Pastorello and Umberto Riva.
This change would favour a move to Italy, where the likes of Torino and Sampdoria would be keen on him. The Turin side have been interested for a while, but didn’t think it was possible, until getting more recent information on the player.
Signed by Chelsea from São Paulo in 2012, Piazon has only three appearances for the Blues. He’s had loan spells at Malaga, Vitesse, Eintracht Frankfurt, Reading and Fulham.
