Every football fan is now focusing on Euros or Copa America, but the football transfer market is going strong on the other side of the football world. Every club is trying to strengthen their team for the upcoming season. Once again, Chelsea put their peddle in full throttle as they now have another new manager who might have different favorite players to pick to settle in his tactics.

Chelsea signed Another Brazilian Wonderkid, Estevao William, For €34.00m From Palmeiras

After staying quiet in the January transfer and securing a place in the Europa Conference League even after their worst season in the Premier League. Chelsea first signed a new manager, Enzo Maresca. Then she signed the 17-year wonderkid Estevao William for their 2025 season for €34.00m to beat Barcelona, who also wanted to have him on the team. He is a very skilled dribbler of the ball who makes headlines in every match that Palmeiras plays, but his youth coach, Sampaio, said that he is still not fully ready for European football because of his Physique as he is just 5 foot and 6 inches tall and not really strong which is why his coach said.

Estevao’s diminutive, 5’6 frame means he is arguably not yet prepared for the rigours of a regular starting place in the Palmeiras first team, nor indeed a move to Europe, but youth coach Sampaio knows that is the next priority. “[The next step is] to improve his physique, but this is also a question of time and maturity,”
“Estevao has more technical talent than them, but he has not yet matured physically. He is a year younger and genetically still does not have the physical build of the other two, but he is a super phenomenon.”
