Report: Chelsea youngster Estevao Willian tipped to become better than ‘special’ Real Madrid player

While things are not looking too rosy in the present for Chelsea, many are extremely excited about the future, starting from the end of this season.

The Blues are set to add a number of young talents they have already signed to their squad this summer, with the most attention being around Estevao Willian.

The Brazil international will continue to feature for Palmeiras until then, with him fresh off a record-breaking season in terms of goals and assists.

Chelsea youngster Estevao tipped to become better than Endrick

It already seems like the youngster is making the appropriate changes to his game to be able to feature in the Premier League as soon as next season. Estevao has been winning an insane amount of duels in the early stages of the new campaign.

Described already as a ‘generational’ talent, the levels of excitement around an elite team signing a player from Brazil have only been matched recently by Endrick’s move to Real Madrid.

While the striker has only been a bit-part player since his move to the Bernabeu, manager Carlo Ancelotti has proven to be a huge fan of Endrick already.

He said to Bein Sports after his debut: “Endrick looks really promising, with huge potential. In that goal, he showed all his qualities—he’s fast, has great control, and packs a powerful shot. That’s his thing. He’s a proper striker, especially dangerous in tight spaces,”

Despite the former Palmeiras man being tipped for big things, The Mirror have stated that many believe Estevao can become the better player of the two.

Estevao vs Endrick stats at Palmeiras

Former Brazil international Elano told FourFourTwo that Endrick is ‘special’, but how do the youngsters’ time in their home country compare with each other?

Endrick 52 17 10

What is clear is that Estevao has scored his goals at a far better rate than Endrick, despite not being a natural striker.

This explains why he has contributed far more assists for the club, however it is his goalscoring that the Blues will be keen to unlock as soon as possible.

Wingers at Stamford Bridge have not been firing as regularly as Enzo Maresca would like this season, and the youngster could be the answer as he sets up his side for next season.
