Lucas Piazon has no plans of spending the season with Chelsea.

The Brazilian midfielder, who spent last term on-loan with Eintracht Frankfurt, admits regretting penning a long-term deal with his parent club.

Piazon told ESPN Brasil: "It was once meant for me to be the new number 6 at Chelsea. I would only stay for a while in Brazil, then I would go to England. But then I came back here, then I went back there. And then...

"I do not want to stay at Chelsea to keep the bench warm, that's really a waste of time.

"I prefer to play for a team where I can develop myself and where I basically can play almost every week."
