Brazil legend Ronaldinho has given some words of advice to Chelsea sensation Estevao ahead of Sunday’s game against Arsenal.
The Blues welcome the Gunners to Stamford Bridge in a top of the table clash, looking for their first win against their rivals since 2021.
Chelsea sit second, six points behind the Gunners, and a win would see them cut the gap to three and put themselves in the title conversation at this early stage of proceedings.
Ronaldinho gives advice to Estevao
Chelsea have been boosted by the return to fitness of Cole Palmer, and with Estevao in his current form the Blues have got to fancy their chances.
Enzo Maresca has spoken on the prospect of playing Estevao and Palmer together, and the Brazilian sensation has been in brilliant form this season.
Estevao scored a superb goal against Barcelona, and he became the third teenager to score in his first three Champions League starts after Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.
The 18-year-old is regarded as the best player to emerge from Brazil since Neymar, and his form is very much showing the hype is real.
Estevao is likely to retain his place in the line-up for the game against Arsenal, and he received some advice on social media from none other than Ronaldinho.
The teenager recently featured on Nike Football Instagram post, and Ronaldinho commented:
“Time to shine Guri!!! Be happy, play with joy and everything will be fine!!!”
Chelsea ready to unleash Cole Palmer
Whilst Estevao has been in brilliant form, the Blues have had to make do without Palmer, and the 23-year-old has only made four appearances this season.
The thought of adding a fully fit Palmer into the Chelsea side is a scary prospect, and the England international is ready to be unleashed on Arsenal.
Palmer’s return to fitness will also allow the Blues to field both him and Estevao in the same side, and the duo have literally played four minutes together this season.
