Estevao Willian Has been one of the Brazilian youngsters that more expectations has generated in the last months. His exert in the inferior categories of the Palmeiras and performance in the World-wide Sub-17 have turned him into one of the talents with greater projection of the football sudamericano. Besides, it has 'won' the nickname of 'Messinho' by his similarity to Lionel Messi in the terrain of game. In Brazil see him like the next big star of his country.
The Palmeiras is rubbing the hands with his performance and want to repeat the operation that completed in the winter of 2022 with Endrick. They closed his traspaso by around 60 million euros to the Real Madrid and will land in the White House when it fulfil the majority of age. With 'Messinho' the plan is the same and could finish putting course to the Premier League, with Chelsea like main destination.
Chelsea tightens by Estevao Willian
And it is that, although from the FC Barcelona have been very attentive to his performance and are conscious that the dream of the footballer is to dress of Barcelona, have not moved index card sometime to do with his services, understanding that it is a very costly movement and that are not in conditions to disburse 60 'kilos' -of his clause of rescission- for ficharle. More forward it could be a possibility, but to day of today is not something that was on the table. There is not how.
From the newspaper 'SPORT' have signalled that the Barcelona picture could lose by complete the possibility to incorporate in a near future to the player of 16 years, put Chelsea is presionando to do with his traspaso. So much so they would have sent to his representatives to Sao Paulo to try unblock the operation and convince so much to the Palmeiras as to Estevao that fiche by his team.
The 'blues' have wanted to advance in front of the -also- increasing interest of the Paris Saint-Germain, whose sportive adviser, Luis Fields, had displaced in several opportunities to the country sudamericano to open a possible road of negotiation. However, everything seems to indicate that the group of the capital of France will not do any movement more after having closed the traspasos of Gabriel Moscardo and Lucas Beraldo.
The numbers of the operation
The true is that Chelsea himself that is had to throw the house by the window to do with the services of 'Messingo' and, always according to the before quoted source, would have sent to Laurence Stewart and another director to Sao Paulo to negotiate with Leila Pereira, president of the Palmeiras. In the same, would have tried to go down the price of the clause of 60 'kilos', but from the 'Verdao' have closed in band. There will be discounts, as it happened in his moment with Endrick and the Real Madrid.
And it is that it is worth it to remember that the Palmeiras has to achieve an available high price if it wants to take out profits of the movement of Estevao, put only have 70% of the rights of the player. As they explain in 'SPORT', 30% remaining corresponds him to the family of the forward. That is to say, in case that the sale concretise by €60m, €42m would be for the 'Verdao' and other €18m for the surroundings of 'Messinho'.
