Chelsea have signed another ‘amazing’ player who ‘can win a game alone’, Cole Palmer is buzzing
Chelsea have been busy this summer, signing the likes of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro along with a host of incredibly exciting young players.
Estevao Willian, Dario Essugo, Mamadou Sarr and Kendry Paez have either joined Chelsea already or are due to link up with the club over the coming weeks.
Chelsea are currently on Club World Cup duty, where they will fancy their chances of going all the way after seeing off Palmeiras on Friday night.
After the match, Enzo Maresca was told that Chelsea had signed a truly “amazing” player who can win a game all on his own.
Abel Ferreira told Enzo Maresca that Chelsea have signed an ‘amazing player’ in Estevao
Chelsea faced a Palmeiras side featuring Estevao, who had the unenviable task of trying to knock his future employers out of the competition.
The Blues agreed a deal for the 18-year-old winger, which included letting him stay at Palmeiras for the duration of their Club World Cup campaign.
Estevao impressed against his future employers, even getting on the scoresheet with a goal from a very tight angle to equalise.
Chelsea prevailed in the end and, after the game, Palmeiras manager Abel Ferreira revealed what he told Maresca about Estevao.
He said, as per : “I spoke before with Maresca and told him: ‘You bought an amazing player but more than this you bought an amazing person.
“You need to embrace him. In the beginning he will make mistakes but he is an amazing player with a lot of skill.'”
“He is a player who can win a game alone.”
The Brazilian media also hailed Estevao after his swansong outing for the club.

What Enzo Maresca and Cole Palmer said about Estevao
Maresca said at his post-match press conference: “I’m happy because we won and also happy because Estevao scored, the perfect night.
“He is very good, a huge talent, fantastic player. The only thing is when you come from South America or another part of the world, you need to adapt.
“We are going to help him to adapt. We have no doubt he will be an important player for Chelsea.”
And Cole Palmer, who talked to Estevao after the final whistle, added: “You can see he is a top player, so it is very exciting.
“I just said to him we are excited for him to join – but he didn’t understand a single word I said!”
