Former Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti has spoken on a current Chelsea player who has an ‘incredible amount of talent’.
Ancelotti, who is now the manager of national team Brazil, was talking off the back of their recent game this weekend on the latest international break.
He watched on as his side beat Senegal 2-0 in a friendly on Saturday. In a Chelsea aspect, we Estevao Willian start the game, and Joao Pedro come on as a second half sub to help their side win.
Estevao actually scored the opening goal for Brazil as well after the ball dropped to him on the left, just inside the area, and he hit what is becoming one of his trademark curling left foot shots into the top corner!
The young rising star is currently out there making waves at the very top level even though he is still just 18-years-old, and he is continuing to receive glowing reports from the media, fans, and those who manage and coach him.

The former Blue said:
“With Estevão, Brazil has a guaranteed future. The amount of talent he has is incredible.
“Estevão has incredible amount of talent. It’s a surprise this level at his age. He’s good at finishing, has a lot of ‘magic’… and he works very hard.”
Ancelotti went on to say on Estevao, via Hayters TV:
“He’s a very talented player. He is able to show every game, in Chelsea too, and he doesn’t need a lot of minutes to show his quality.
“He can play five minutes and he can show his quality. I think the Brazil national team is really lucky to have him, and also Chelsea.”
