In Europe with his representative to define his future, Corinthians striker Alexandre Pato was seen late on Wednesday in London, more precisely at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea defeated FC Porto 2-0 on Wednesday and qualified for the round of 16 of this season’s UEFA Champions League as group winners. The Corinthians striker was photographed next to a fan during the Chelsea game, and this only intensifies the rumors of a possible transfer of the player to England in the January transfer window. After the end of his loan spell at São Paulo last weekend, the 26-year-old left for Europe on Monday night along with his agent Gilmar Veloz, to meet Kia Joorabchian who has already talked to a number of top Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool. Barcelona are also monitoring the situation of Pato, as they seek a reliable back-up for their offensive trio of Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar.
