“If they give me the shirt #41 as I have at Palmeiras, it will be cool” – Willian Estevão on Joining Chelsea
Chelsea’s latest signing, Willian Estevão, has set his sights on a specific shirt number as he prepares to make his mark at Stamford Bridge.
The highly-rated 17-year-old forward, who currently plays for Brazilian club Palmeiras, will officially join the London side in the summer of 2025 once he turns 18.
Estevão, widely regarded as one of Brazil’s most promising young talents, was secured by Chelsea for an initial fee of €34 million.
The deal could rise further with performance-related add-ons, demonstrating the club’s confidence in his potential.
His contract will keep him with the Blues until 2033, signaling a long-term investment in his development.
Speaking about his future at Chelsea in an interview with ESPN Brasil, Estevão expressed his preference for the number 41 jersey, the same number he currently wears at Palmeiras.
“If they give me the shirt #41 as I have at Palmeiras, it will be cool,” he said, highlighting his attachment to the number that has brought him success so far.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.

The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
