Brazilian midfielder Lucas Piazón was loaned by Chelsea to English second division side Fulham.
The former São Paulo youngster British newspaper Daily Mail that excessive transfers hindered his development in Europe. Before being sent to Fulham, Piazón had loan spells at Málaga, Reading, Eintracht Frankfurt and Vitesse. Piazón was present in the Chelsea squad that got defeated by Corinthians in the Club World Cup final in 2012. The 22-year-old pointed out the difference in style of play in Spain, England, Holland and Germany, and that the short period in clubs there complicated the adaptation process. He said: I’m tired of moving abroad. One, two, three loans, maybe that’s enough. It’s time for me to stay somewhere more than one year. When they know you’ll stay whatever happens, people look at you with different eyes. If I had the chance to go for more than one season I’d do it.”
He added: “It makes no sense to go on loan all the time. It is not good for any player in my experience, or the experience of the other boys. I don’t see it as a positive thing any more. To be in a different place every year is not good for me at 22. It’s difficult to get a place in the team. They have their own players. You do your best, try to get a place in the squad, minutes on the pitch, score and create goals. That’s all you can do. I had a great time at Vitesse Arnhem and that helped. The Dutch league is all about playing football. They don’t defend like crazy. We had a great squad, playing great football and it was so easy to score or make assists. Then I moved to Germany, where you have to run 12km or 13km in every game. After the first game I lay on the pitch, almost dead.”
