From Fluminense to Chelsea

Pedro achieved his penetration in Fluminense in his homeland before joining Watford in 2020.

He admired Vicarage Road, where he got a transfer to Brighton to obtain record fees in the club, then 30 million pounds and continued to score 30 goals in 70 games with Segulls.

His departure sees it follows the devastating path well from Amex to Stamford Bridge, but BRIGON Boss Fabian Hurzler is sure that South Coast Club can overcome him in his absence.

He said: “This is a good step for all parties. It is an excellent deal for the club, and a good return on a great investment in the stadium area where we have a lot of competition and is already offered well in terms of our attacking talent.

“It is also an exciting step for Joao – it gives him the opportunity to play football in the Champions League this season, and will of course be keen to strengthen his position in the Brazil team before the World Cup next summer.”

Chelsea has already strengthened the attack options this summer by picking up Liam Dilab while Estevao Willian and Kendry Paez will complete the previously arranged moves.
