New Chelsea Signing Reveals Palmer Talks And Preferred Position

New Chelsea signing, Estevao Willian has revealed that he had a conversation with Cole Palmer via Instagram as he prepares to move to England in July.

After agreeing to deal with the London club last summer, Estevao will join Enzo Maresca’s team from Palmeiras in the summer.

With 15 goals across all competitions and his first international call-up, the teenager has had a fantastic season in South America.

The teenage star has occasionally imitated Palmer’s signature celebration and has communicated with the Chelsea player he aspires to succeed with at Stamford Bridge.

“I really like the celebration [by Cole Palmer],” Estevao explained to ESPN as reported by The Independent.

“Ever since I signed with Chelsea I said I was going to do this celebration. We exchanged ideas, I’m happy to have this contact with him.

“I’m learning English, it’s hard. I have a good technique [watching films without subtitles], music… I haven’t visited Chelsea yet, but if I have the opportunity, now I’m on holiday, I’ll get to know the structure.

“There are Chelsea agents here in Brazil who speak to you, Palmer speaks to me on Instagram.”

Although the versatile Estevao has played a wider role this season, he eventually wants to switch to the position where Palmer is performing well under Maresca.

“I’ve always been a number ten and I went to the wing to have one-on-ones,” he explained.

“Of course I respect [Palmeiras coach] Abel Ferreira’s decision, I know that I’ve enjoyed being on the wing more, but who knows, in the future I’ll play where I feel more comfortable, which is inside.”
