Chelsea-bound Estevao Willian rejected a chance to join up with Blues squad for the remainder of the Club World Cup in the US as he wanted to bid a proper goodbye to his boyhood club Palmeiras. The youngster scored in his final game for the Brazilian side against his future club but they crashed out of the competition after suffering a 2-1 defeat in the quarter-finals.
Estevao Willian scored an outrageous goal from a near-impossible angle in his final game for Palmeiras against future employers Chelsea in the Club World Cup quarter-finals. The Brazilian restored parity in the second half after Cole Palmer handed an early lead to the Blues, but Augustin Giay's late own goal helped the English giants progress to the last four.
Estevao Willian has been urged to give Chelsea a glimpse of his talent before completing his ÂŁ51.5m move to Stamford Bridge. Palmeiras coach Abel Ferreira expects the 18-year-old to deliver a strong performance against his future employers in the Club World Cup quarter-final, saying the winger 'has to do his job'.
Palmeiras manager Abel Ferreira hit out media for criticising sensation Estevao Willian ahead of his much-awaited move to Chelsea this summer. The youngster recently revealed his nervousness at finally joining the Blues after the Club World Cup. The attacker played a key role in the club topping their Club World Cup group and reaching the round of 16 stage.
