CONCREAT DEAL: Chelsea Confirm Deal to Sign £48m Wonderkid…

Chelsea have confirmed that they have agreed a deal with Palmeiras for the transfer of Estevao Willian, the Brazilian teenager who has been nicknamed ‘Messinho‘. The talented 17-year-old is set to join the Premier League club in the summer of 2025 when he turns 18.

The Blues’ interest in Estevao goes back months, with them eager to bring the sensational youngster into the fold as part of their strategy of signing the best young players in the world. He had attracted interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona in recent months, which illustrates the heights that many clubs believe he can reach.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea will pay an initial fee of €34m (£28.7m) for Estevao, but that has the potential to rise to as much as £48m, per The Athletic. The add-ons for those additional costs will be based on the number of appearances he makes with Palmeiras, as well as him starting multiple games for the Stamford Bridge club once he arrives next year.
