Chelsea’s plan for Estevao
Chelsea feel as if they have hit the jackpot with the signing of Estevao, and there are currently no plans to send him loan for the 2025/26 campaign.
Estevao has already shown he has upped his physicality levels over the break, something that will be crucial if he is to play frequently in the Premier League.
The winger has been in contact with club legend Thiago Silva, who has explained to him just how excited the Blues are to have him join them.
It remains to be seen what his arrival means for the current wingers at Stamford Bridge, with them already having Pedro Neto, Jadon Sancho, and Noni Madueke in their ranks, as well as Tyrique George.
