Chelsea have become something of wonderkid hoarders in recent years under their current ownership, with Estevao Willian the next big shiny toy for the Blues.
The west London side shelled out £51m to sign the Brazilian wonderkid earlier this year with Estevao due to join Chelsea in 2025, with the attacker already part of Selecao during this international break with Liverpool’s Alisson Becker out injured.
With Endrick making a name for himself at Real Madrid, there is some pressure on the future Chelsea attacker to deliver for Brazil in the coming years, with Estevao showing for Palmeiras why he is one the most exciting talents in world football.
And it’s Estevao’s quality that seemingly got the youngster in trouble with Alisson in Brazil training.
Estevao left Alisson ‘angry’ after taking shooting training too seriously
Speaking to the Guardian, Estevao revealed that he once left Alisson annoyed in one of his first training sessions with the Brazil national team after taking a shooting drill way too seriously with the Liverpool star between the sticks.
At 17-years-old, it’s easy to see why Estevao has been cocky in training sessions already for Brazil, and it appears that a small rivalry of sorts could soon develop between the winger and Alisson, especially with the teenager joining Chelsea next year.

Estevao said when asked about making Alisson angry in Brazil training: “In shooting training, I started to hit all the shots and Alisson got a bit angry. He said he was still warming up, that I should wait a little bit.
“But I took it a bit seriously and scored many goals [against] him. He took it all in jest, but I hope that next year I can do again against him in [Premier League] matches. We’ll see a lot of each other in England.”
Alisson will want to get one over on Estevao in the Premier League
With Estevao joining Chelsea next summer, it will be some time before Premier League fans get their first real glimpse at the Brazil international, who could be one of the breakout stars in the 2025/26 season.
Yet for Alisson, the Liverpool star will now want to get one over on Estevao once the Brazilian wonderkid has officially joined Chelsea, with the winger potentially due for a big reality shock when he moves to the Premier League.
Indeed, Estevao has a long way to go in becoming one of the best wingers in the world, and with the forward seemingly making a rival in Alisson, the future Chelsea star could have made games against Liverpool extremely tough for himself.
