Estevao Willian’s agent Andre Cury revealed that Chelsea’s willingness to let his clients play in a central role was a key factor for the decision of the teenager for this connect The blues over a flood of other interested freings.
The Brazilian striker, who was quickly christened “Messinho” – Little Messi – due to his dribbling skills and his left feet, agreed to join Chelsea last summer. The Palmeira’s Starlet can only join in with its new club after the upcoming World Cup, since he is not yet 18 years old.
Chelsea has made it a habit to break talent from all over the world under the ambitious property of the club in teen age. In the past few weeks, the Blues Manchester United has overheld to secure the coveted signature of Geovany Quenda from Sporting CP.
The freely queue of the freely who tried to sign Estevao was even longer. Arsenal was overturned to be interested in the Brazilian record, while both La -League giants – Barcelona and Real Madrid – admire a look at the way.
Ultimately, Estevao failed for a Chelsea team who was just sixth in the Premier League because they wanted to afford.
“It was the only club that saw us as No. 10 who played in midfield,” said Estevaos Agent Cury, said Cury O Globo. “I like to be wrong, but we will have the opportunity. I think we will be right, that was also something that weighed strongly.”
Interestingly, Estevao does not play as “No. 10” – as a central, attacking midfielder – for Palmeiras. When Abel Ferreira matches a system that includes a player in this position, he opted for the Brazilian international Raphael Veiga without exception.
Cury is unnecessary and insists that Estevao’s best position is in the middle. “In my opinion, he played in my team as ten,” added the agent. “You like to put it on the wing. I think it’s too tight for a player of this quality, I think that … like all players of this quality in the world is usually the number 10, so the No. 10 plays inside.”
It is the undeniable fact that Chelsea’s best player has already occupied the number 10. Cole Palmer is practically omnipresent for the blues as the central center of Enzo Marescas 4-2-3-1. The English international was forced to suspend the toothless defeat of Chelsea against Arsenal with a slight injury before March – that was the first top game that Palmer had missed in eleven months.
