The 22-year-old has still not made an appearance for Chelsea since signing for the Blues in 2015
Chelsea winger Nathan is set to sign for Atletico Mineiro of Brazil on a season-long loan, according to reports.
The 22-year-old has yet to make an appearance for the Blues despite joining the Stamford Bridge club in 2015, spending time on loan at Vitesse of the Netherlands, French side Amiens, and Belenenses, in Portugal.
Nathan signed for Chelsea from Atletico Paranaense of Brazil, and he’s set to return to his homeland this summer with UOL reporting that an agreement has already been reached for the former Brazil youth international to join Atletico Mineiro on a temporary basis.
Nathan will spend a year with Atletico, as he was not in new Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri’s plans at Stamford Bridge.
The youngster is set to travel to Belo Horizonte to finalise terms with Atletico, and undergo a medical with the Brasileirao side.
17 players have already left Chelsea on loan this summer, though Nathan will be the sole Stamford Bridge representative in the Brazilian top flight when his move is confirmed.
