Claudio Pizarro has rejoined Werder Bremen on a permanent basis.
The Peru international spent last season on loan at Bremen but on his return to Stamford Bridge was told by new Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti that his services were not required.
Having already played for Bremen from 1999 to 2001, Pizarro looks set for another return and the Peru star has plenty of Bundesliga experience having also spent six seasons at Bayern Munich.
Pizarro scored 17 league goals for Bremen while on loan last season, impressing Bremen director of sport Klaus Allofs, who is reported to have contacted Chelsea on Sunday to express an interest in signing the 30-year-old.
Pizarro, who was left out of Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Hull City at the weekend, managed just two goals during his only season at Stamford Bridge.
