Estêvão

If we sign estevao I can see him getting loaned out to strasbourg (or a competitive team in general)  and then slowly getting integrated team.

Maybe he’s too good to be loaned out? If he’s truly a wonder kid then he shouldn’t find it too difficult to break into first team squad.

Agreed, if him and Kendry Paez are supposed to have the sort of hype Vinicius Jr did the surely they should be straight into our team 

 
Estevao and Paez are destined to be good simply based on their names. The next Eusebio and Pele (one can dream).

Sorry I can't get excited by this. I want to go back to the days when we signed the likes of Sterling, Higuain and Aubameyang. We need more old, has-been players for their experience.
Don’t forget the likes of Falcao, Weah and Pato. Actually to be fair, Weah was fun and totally different time. 

 
Looks like it's happening.

🚨 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Chelsea agree personal terms with Brazilian talent Willian Estevão

Time to crank back up the old Willian song.

 
Imagine the Thiago Silva that went to Milan was being tracked by us right now.

"Another young Brazillian, some experience like Abdoulaye Méïté could be got at for a decent price"
The wonder kid to world class player ratio is pretty low, but for defenders I can’t think of any, they seem to come out of nowhere.  Pau Cubarsí of Barca looks talented but it’s still early days.

 
In fairness we are short of young players who prefer playing on the right wing. Glad we are plugging that gap.

 
I came here for the “here we go”, “it’s happening” and “48 hours”. 

 
Think we need to buy another European club to accommodate the number of foreign youth players we buy every season. You still want the academy to produce 'pure profit' players, so don't want these kids to come to the club too early to take up a spot in the under 19 or reserves. It's fascinating we need to sell grown ups to keep in line with the FFP, as soon as we out of trouble we buy more youth assets.

Not a silly idea

We bought Strasbourg already, in case you missed it 

 
On the basis that this mob seem to have the idea that every child born in Brazil 16 years ago is now a generational footballing talent ready to take over the world, i wonder whether Clearlake and Boehly can actually get ahead of the curve and steal a march on the rest of the football community.

Perhaps, rather then purchasing football clubs as part of a multi club model, they could open a string of South American sperm banks and we could then harvest our own burgeoning galactico talents in a few years.

Perhaps a franchise of clinics called "Ele Atira, Ele Marca"
