Surprised this hasn't yet been posted...

Claudio Pizarro has today signed a permanent deal with Werder Bremen.

The Peruvian spent last year on loan with the German club, scoring 17 times in 26 Bundesliga games.

Pizarro joined us in the summer of 2007 on a free from Bayern Munich, scoring on his debut in a 3-2 win over Birmingham, and again against the Blues at St Andrews, his only strikes in 31 Chelsea appearances that season.

All at the club wish Claudio well for the future.

Good luck to him - no offence to Piz but the Prem didnt really suit him well

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Agreed, its too fast to suit his style. Best of luck in Germany.

Thank god, thought we'd be stuck with him. Good luck Piz

It was never going to be worth while keeping Pizarro, it is best for him and for us that he has moved on. Fee is reportedly around £5m which for a free transfer is pretty good business i think.

[ZanSnake 1,211]

According to SkySports he was a free transfer to Bremen

[BlueLion. 21,491]

He signed a three year deal in 2007, so no chance of that.
