Palmeiras youngster Estevao Willian has been tracked by several of Europe's top clubs. But finally, it will be Chelsea who will manage to get the player's services, according to ‘Relevo’.
'Messinho' will join the London club in the summer of 2025, when he will be 18 years old. The ‘blues’ will pay between 30 and 35 million euros plus variables for the transfer.
Barcelona had ‘Messinho’ on their agenda, but their financial problems have prevented them from making a strong bid for the Brazilian. Meanwhile, Real Madrid have not wanted to get involved in the operation due to their bad relations with Andre Cury, the player's agent.
PSG were another club that had been interested in the striker. They even made an offer for Estevao, but the Brazilian club rejected it.
The ‘Messinho’ soap opera seems to have come to an end. Neither Real Madrid, always well placed in Brazil, as has been seen with Vinicius or Rodrygo, nor FC Barcelona, the club most desired by the player, have been able to beat Chelsea in the bidding for the attacker.
