Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano rarely shares his personal views when delivering transfer news, but he couldn’t contain his excitement about Chelsea’s latest signing.
Like many Chelsea supporters, Romano is eagerly awaiting the arrival of a rising star who has been making waves in Brazil. The buzz around Estevão Willian, the talented winger from Palmeiras, grows by the week as fans continue to marvel at his highlight reels.
Soon, those dazzling goals will come in a Chelsea jersey, as the 17-year-old Brazilian is set to officially join the club in the summer of 2025. Romano, clearly impressed, has been hyping up Estevão ahead of his much-anticipated arrival in England.
Estevão: A Goal Machine
In a recent YouTube video, Romano couldn’t help but rave about the young sensation:
“This boy, guys, is special! I told you already in the summer when Chelsea signed him; this is an underrated signing! This is a fantastic talent!”
Romano also shared how intense Chelsea’s pursuit of the winger had been:
“How Chelsea were fighting for him is a crazy story! What I can tell you is Chelsea internally, the excitement is really, really huge! They believe they signed one of the top talents in the world, not just in South America! They have good reports for him on and off the pitch. Professional, committed, and focused on succeeding in football!”
A Visit to London
Romano revealed that Estevão is set to visit England soon, ahead of his move:
“Estevão Willian will be in England before the end of the year; this is the plan: to travel to London, to adapt, and maybe visit Chelsea, obviously at Cobham and maybe at Stamford Bridge. They are planning the trip.”
It’s easy to see why Chelsea is so excited about their new signing. At such a young age, Estevão already has two senior caps for Brazil and has recently broken records set by none other than Neymar. With talent like his, Chelsea fans have every reason to believe they’ve got a future star in their ranks.
