Alexandre Pato has made a move to Chinese club Tianjin Quanjian. The Brazilian forward, 27-years-old, spent a year on loan at Stamford Bridge last campaign.



Tianjin moved quickly to snap up Pato on a long term deal having missed out on Chelsea striker Diego Costa in the transfer window. Pato arrives in China from Villarreal.

Pato is said to be on a 1 million USD a month contract at Tianjin and joins a large contingent of Brazilian players to have moved to Asia.
