Piazon loaned, van Aanholt departs

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Patrick van Aanholt has today (Friday) departed Chelsea, just twenty-four hours after Brazilian youngster Lucas Piazon joined Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt on loan.

Dutch defender van Aanholt departs on a permanent deal to Premier League rivals Sunderland, whilst Piazon will continue his development in Germany after a promising spell at Vitesse Arnhem.

van Aanholt, who showed much promise under Carlo Ancelotti's tenure in the Stamford Bridge hotseat, scored once for the Blues in eight first-team appearances, whilst Piazon has registered two assists in just three senior games.

The Dutchman impressed whilst on loan with Piazon in his native Holland with Vitesse, earning him a place in Louis van Gaal's provision 30-man squad, whilst Piazon has previously enjoyed Champions League experience with Malaga in 2013.

Everyone at TalkChelsea would like to thank Patrick for his service and extend him our best wishes for the future. For Lucas, we hope to see him further blossom into a potential star for the club.
