Bayern Munich have been quietly enquiring about Estevao’s situation with Chelsea and have also reached out to those close to the 19-year-old Brazilian. However, there is no mention of any fee being discussed, and there has been no reaction from the Blues.
Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have also been said to be asking questions about the youngster’s situation. Meanwhile, Arsenal and Manchester City are also known to be keeping an eye on how he is doing in West London.
But with Chelsea so keen to keep the young star, it seems unlikely that Estevao will be leaving Stamford Bridge. The Blues have absolutely no plans to loan or sell him in January as they believe he is a special talent. They are also said to be unconcerned by the interest, with Estevao being fully committed to the club.
Bayern have been admirers of Estevao since he was at Palmeiras in Brazil. They tried to hijack Chelsea’s deal for him in 2024, but Chelsea won the race. He is now under contract with the Blues until 2033.
Estevao Finally Gets His Chance Under Xabi Alonso
The interest comes after a frustrating start to the season for Estevao under Xabi Alonso. He has been behind Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers and Joao Pedro in the pecking order and has not contributed to any goals in his first six Premier League games. This is a big drop from his debut season, when he scored eight goals in 36 games before his season was cut short by injury.
On October 31, Estevao started his first Premier League game of the season in the 2-0 victory against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge. He was one of the liveliest players on show and also had the ball in the net twice. However, both goals were disallowed for offside.
Alonso has since admitted that Estevao should be playing more games after previously saying there had been no talks around loaning him out. Estevao will be hoping to keep his spot in the starting line-up as they head to Sunderland on Sunday.
