Generally, this agreement between club and player corresponds to the value of the salary and the duration of the contract to be signed. The information was disclosed by European journalist Fabrizio Romano. Chelsea are the favourites in the fight for the Brazilian gem.
In addition to the agreement with the player, Chelsea have also signaled what their first bid for the striker will look like. The English intend to offer around 32 million euros (R$ 174.9 million) fixed plus an amount in bonuses and targets to be achieved.
There is still nothing 100% closed between the parties, but talks are advancing. As he is only 17 years old, Estevão would have to wait until the middle of 2025 to transfer to the European team. The striker comes of age on April 24, 2025.
In addition to the English, Bayern Munich has also contacted and has already opened talks with the São Paulo team, but without presenting or signaling with any proposal for Estevão. Negotiations are in more preliminary stages than with Chelsea.
