“I don’t think Premier League is ready for him” “Great Chelsea signing” – Ronaldo on incoming Chelsea signing
Ronaldo Nazario, a legend in Brazil, has given incoming CHELSEA star Estevao a great review. Estevao is establishing himself as one of the most dynamic and gifted players in the Brazilian Leagues.
Before Chelsea decided to jump in and bring Estevao to the Premier League, he only made 22 senior games for Palmeiras; however, he won’t be joining until the following season.
The CHELSEA announcement came after reports about a transfer potentially worth as much as £52m with the Brazilian club being struck. Estevao is has reportedly signed a nine-year contract until 2033 with the club.
He is already a full Brazilian International and many are hoping that this move to Stamford Bridge does not hold his development back, his 13th goal in the league along with nine assists and is the third player in the Brasileirao to have scored the most goals. He also has a total of 22 goal involvements
Abel Ferreira’s side came back to defeat Cruzeiro 2-1 on the road and Estevao once again had a key role in the match. His sensational free-kick in the 89th minute kept Palmeiras in the Brasileirao title race ahead of the final game, which takes place on Sunday
And During a conversation with journalist Ben Jacobs via X, Ronaldo raved about the South American teenager, who’s already earned four senior Brazil caps, he said: “He’s a young player and very talented. He’s kind of like Lamine Yamal.
‘He will soon be a very big star in football. He’s very promising, and at just 17. I think he’ll play for Palmeiras at the Club World Cup then join Chelsea.”
