Piazon leaves Chelsea for Braga after nine years with Premier League club

 The perennial loanee will end his time at Stamford Bridge to move to the Europa League side

Chelsea have released Lucas Piazon after nine years, with the attacker agreeing to a four-and-a-half-year contract with Portuguese side Braga.

Braga will not pay a fee for Piazon, who is still to complete a medical with the Primeira Liga side.

The Blues have been keen to trim their loan group ahead of new FIFA regulations coming in the summer that limit clubs stockpiling senior talent.
