Alexandre Pato still waiting by the phone for Chelsea to call and offer him a four-year contract

ALEXANDRE PATO is still hoping Chelsea will rescue him from his exotic holiday sign him on a FOUR YEAR deal.

The Brazilian arrived at Stamford Bridge in January last season on short-term loan deal that lasts officially until June 30.

There was, apparently, a clause inserted that allowed the west London club to sign the former AC Milan striker on a permanent basis from current club Corinthians, if the loan was deemed a success.

But the 26-year-old made just two Premier League appearances – the first not coming until April.

He did manage a goal during his cameo but it only came against kamikaze club Aston Villa in a 4-0 drubbing.

And now Antonio Conte looks like signing seriously exciting Belgian striker Michy Batshuayi from Marseille.

But the player’s representative Gilmar Veloz told GloboEsporte the Samba star is waiting by the phone in the hope the Blues offer him a big-money deal to take him up to 2020.

Veloz said: “[I hear] Pato’s already agreed deals with Internacional, Sao Paulo, Palmeiras, Flamengo but how is he going to sign for someone else when he has a contract at Chelsea until the 30th?

"He has a document there with a four-year contract that Chelsea will exercise if they want.

"I don't know if they will do that; I'm not Roman Abramovich.

"If they don't buy him, it will be up to Corinthians to decide what to do.

“Pato is on holiday, waiting to find out his future."
