Chelsea have already signed the three 'most advanced' youngsters in world football as Estevao Willian leads the way

The Chelsea owners have made no secret of the fact that they are leading a project in West London led by promising young talents.

The Blues already have the youngest squad in the Premier League by far, and that will only continue to come down when a number of the players they have already signed finally join up with the first team.

The highlight name brought in so far is Estevao Willian, with the Brazil international expected to join the first team as soon as this season comes to an end.

It has even been predicted that Estevao could be a Chelsea starter next season, with him showing immense ability already to back up his potential.

A recent list of the best youngsters in world football saw Estevao rank behind Lamine Yamal as the second most promising young player around, and the Blues will no doubt look to get the best out of him.

Estevao leads three Chelsea players as ‘most advanced’ youngsters

Chelsea previously promised Estevao could play in the Number 10, however that may change based on how important Cole Palmer has proven to be at Stamford Bridge.

Wherever he plays, the Blues are aware they will be getting a player who has plenty of first team experience under his belt at the age of just 17.

In fact, according to CIES, the Blues have already signed the three players at the top of this list, with Geovany Quenda and Kendry Paez following the Brazilian in the rankings.
