Estevao Willian’s meteoric rise hit a frustrating roadblock after a poorly timed injury forced the Chelsea wonderkid to the sidelines. The setback carries a particularly bitter sting, as the physical knock directly cost him a coveted spot in the latest Brazil national team for the World Cup.
This heartbreak will undoubtedly fuel his fire, giving him a massive point to prove and making him even hungrier to succeed ahead of next season.
