Chelsea Football Club has increased their offer to secure the transfer of Willian Estevão from Palmeiras. The London-based club’s latest proposal stands at a total of €65 million, including add-ons, following a previously rejected bid of €32 million plus €25 million in potential bonuses.
Details of the Transfer Negotiations
The negotiation process has seen significant developments over the past weeks. Chelsea’s initial bid did not meet Palmeiras’ valuation of the player, leading to the enhanced offer. The terms with the player have been settled for two weeks, indicating that Estevão is agreeable to the move pending the agreement between the two clubs.
