Estevao Willian
November 2025
Enzo Maresca has urged Chelsea winger Estevao Willian to ignore comparisons with Barcelona star Lamine Yamal before their Champions League clash, insisting the teenager must focus exclusively on his own development despite already producing goals, assists and eye-catching displays in his first season in England. Maresca praised Estevao’s maturity, work rate and impact in limited minutes while stressing that comparisons can create needless pressure when he is still adapting to Premier League and European football. Chelsea view him as a long term cornerstone but plan to manage his minutes carefully as he grows.
