Chelsea are reportedly ready to end Alexandre Pato’s time at the club

Apart from sprouting a moustache, Alexandre Pato hasn't done anything particularly newsworthy since arriving at Chelsea in January.

When the former Milan star agreed a deal at Stamford Bridge, it was expected that he'd take a few weeks to get up to speed with his fitness.

A couple of months later, and there's still no sign of the Brazilian making his first team bow.

In fact, according to fresh reports, it now seems like it's been decided that "The Duck" doesn't fit the bill (sorry) and could soon be on his way.

Lance! reckon that Chelsea are unhappy with the amount of time it's taking Pato to reach full fitness, and are already planning to offload him.

A shame really; it would have been nice to get him in the first team picture with so much left to play for  this season.
