Estevão Willian, the 18-year-old Brazilian talent set to join Chelsea, caused a stir during a friendly match between Palmeiras and the Blues. After netting a stunning goal, his celebration raised eyebrows — not because of the brilliance of the strike, but because of the perceived disrespect behind his reaction.
Instead of holding back out of courtesy for his future club, Estevão celebrated passionately — a move that many Chelsea supporters felt crossed the line.
The backlash was immediate:
“You don’t showboat against your future club.”
“That’s not the kind of mentality we need at Chelsea.”
While the goal showcased his talent, the celebration has sparked concern among fans about his attitude ahead of his move to Stamford Bridge.
