DONE DEAL: Lucas Piazon cuts Chelsea ties to sign with Braga

Lucas Piazon has cut ties with Chelsea to sign with Braga.

The club's longest serving player Lucas Piazon has joined Braga, EIGHT years after his last Blues game.

Portuguese side Braga confirmed the signing on Thursday with the attacking midfielder penning a deal until 2025.

The 26-year-old leaves Stamford Bridge for good after three first-team outings, seven loan spells and a broken leg.

He had spent the last 18 months on loan at Portuguese outfit Rio Ave but now becomes Braga's seventh signing of the season.

It ends a decade on the books in West London for the Brazilian after arriving from Sao Paolo in 2011.
