Estevao Willian is anticipated to be the next big Brazilian wonderkid, with Endrick gearing up to join Real Madrid in the summer. The 16-year-old, who also plays for Palmeiras, has earned the moniker “Messinho” because of the Barcelona legend’s similar playing style.
Estevao acknowledged a few months ago that he aspires to play for Barcelona. Even though he can’t travel to Europe until 2025, he might not have the opportunity to do so. This is due to reports from Goal Brasil (via MD) indicating that Chelsea has intensified its efforts to sign the teenage forward.
According to the report, Chelsea and Palmeiras are in talks about a deal with a reported fee of €40 million. Barcelona would be content to lose out on a player who has made it very clear that he is eager to join them if an agreement is reached because they are currently unable to match this due to their ongoing financial difficulties.
