Football legend Ronaldo has expressed high expectations for young talent Estevão Willian, likening him to Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal. At just 17 years old, Estevão is already making waves in the football world. Ronaldo shared his thoughts on the player’s potential, stating that Estevão is “very promising” and poised to become a significant figure in the sport.
Potential Move to Chelsea
Ronaldo suggested that Estevão might play for Palmeiras in the upcoming Club World Cup before potentially transferring to Chelsea. This aligns with previous reports indicating Estevão’s ambitions to achieve success at the English club.
Comparison to Lamine Yamal
Estevão’s comparison to Lamine Yamal is noteworthy, as Yamal recently won the prestigious Golden Boy Award and is set to return to Barcelona’s squad. Yamal’s achievements and return to form have been closely followed, with his recent rejoining of Barcelona training sessions alongside Ferran Torres.
Estevão, primarily known for his attacking prowess and versatility on the field, has been under the spotlight for his potential to follow in Yamal’s footsteps. As Ronaldo’s comments suggest, the young Brazilian’s career trajectory is one to watch closely.
