TVC E, SPORTS – Reports in Brazil say Alexandre Pato has reached a verbal agreement with struggling Premier League Champions, Chelsea on a potential 3-year deal.
It is understood the Blues met with the former AC Milan forward and his agent in London on Tuesday night on a possible switch from Corinthians.
Once touted as Brazil’s next rising star, Pato has 27 caps and 10 goals for his country but has not made the Brazil squad since 2013.
More cheery news for Chelsea fans ahead of their Super Sunday clash at Arsenal as Eden Hazard is back in training.
The Belgian took part in Wednesday’s training session, the first time he has trained with the first team squad since he was injured at Crystal Palace on January the 3rd.
Hazard has struggled with fitness and form this season, and is yet to score for Chelsea during the current campaign.
