London, July 1 (IANS) Chelsea confirmed on Friday the departure of Colombian Radamel Falcao and Brazilian Alexandre Pato after the expiry of their contracts at the football club.

The striker, 30, played 12 games with the London club in a campaign marked by recurrent injuries.
Pato, 26, meanwhile, arrived at the Blues during the January transfer window on loan from Corinthians.
