Chelsea midfielder Lucas Piazon has admitted that he must impress at Vitesse Arnhem to avoid being sent out on loan next season.

Piazon has scored three goals during the opening two months of his season-long spell with the Dutch club, and the Brazilian playmaker has revealed that he is focused on earning a place in Chelsea's squad next season.

The 19-year-old told the Daily Mail: "The most important thing for me was to find somewhere to play a lot of games. My first hope was to stay in England and get some experience in the Premier League, but Chelsea spoke to me and I came out here to see the club.

"I liked the club, the city and the training ground. There are a lot of players from Chelsea and we have a good connection. We all want a future at Chelsea but it depends on us.

"We are young and on loan and we have to do something special with our season to get back and stay at the club. We know that if we don't have a good season, we will be back out on loan again."

There are as many as six Chelsea players on loan at Vitesse, including Christian Atsu and Gael Kakuta.
