Chelsea’s newest summer signing has been pictured signing his contract with the club as confirmation came in about the €34m deal being completed yesterday.
As we know, Chelsea’s owners and sporting directors are obsessed with signing up young talents before they become big and expensive, and this one certainly goes in that category.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea signed Willian Estevão for a €34m fixed fee, €6m add-ons based on apps with Palmeiras, €17m add-ons based on being multi-season starter at Chelsea, and €4m difficult add-ons.
So, if all those add-ons come in, that will make Willian a €60m-odd signing!! That’s mad.
