Chelsea Announce Deal For Piazon

Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Brazilian teenager Lucas Piazon from Sao Paulo, but will have to wait nine months for him to arrive at Stamford Bridge.

Piazon, a 17-year-old Brazil youth international will not join until the next winter transfer window as he is not allowed to make the move until after his 18th birthday.

''The player has signed a pre-contract agreement and is expected to join us in January 2012 on a long-term deal,'' Chelsea said in a statement on their website.

Piazon is currently at the South American Under-17 Championships, having made his name at the Under-15 tournament in 2009 - played in England - when he finished as top scorer with 10 goals.

No fee was revealed for the player, but recent reports suggested the deal could be worth as much as £8 million depending on numerous clauses being activated. 

Another youngster joins the Chelsea course and I hope He will bring us joy in the future.

Chelsea And Neymar

Santos forward Neymar, 19, is rated as one of the finest young talents in world football and has been linked with a host of top clubs.

We attempted to sign the player last summer and, whiled we failed to agree a fee, our chief scout, Piet de Visser, confirmed last month that we are still interested in the youngster.

Other clubs like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus and Manchester City have been linked with the player but he seem to have made up his mind about joining Chelsea.

''Chelsea's a great club. It's a dream of every player to play at Chelsea. If one day it happens, I will be very happy to come,'' he told Sky Sports News.''When the moment comes we are going to sit with my family. We are going to think about it and discuss the options.''Last year, when Chelsea came, we sat together and we thought it wasn't the time yet. If it happens this year, we are going to sit again and going to discuss about it.''

He was even scouted by Ancelotti and Mancini Over the weekend during the friendly match between Brazil and Scotland where he performed admirably by scoring two goals.

David Luiz has also chipped in that he will love to see his compatriot at Stamford bridge.

''I would love it if Neymar came to Chelsea. He is going to be one of the best players in the world.'

We seem to have changed our mentality of signing aging players. I hope He will finally come to the bridge to showcase his wonderful talents.

ARE WE BACK FROM THE GRAVE?

After a blistering start to the season was punctuated by our worst run in the league in fifteen years, Chelsea seem to have finally found their winning mentality which has been missing for some months prior to the important victory over FC COPENHAGEN. Since that victory, we have won the last two games in the league against MANCHESTER UNITED and BLACKPOOL. Some players like Lampard and Kalou believe we are back in the title race because our consecutive victories has coincided with two defeats for MAN UTD but Carlo Ancelotti has played down our chances of retaining the crown we won almost a year ago. Although our strikers including our 50miliion pounds purchase are failing to find the net, The ever reliable Lampard now looks like the 20-goal a season player we are used to. Lets hope our strikers will find their scoring boots and begin to do what we know they are capable of doing.

After three wins on the trot, can we now say that CHELSEA FC are back from the grave? The holy book says that the dry bones can rise again so let us be optimistic and believe in our team and hope that the best happens this season. Nobody is giving us a chance currently but they might all be surprised at the end of the season.
