Estevao to Miss Match Against Newcastle

Chelsea's Brazilian forward Estevao will miss the Premier League Matchweek 16 game against Newcastle due to a muscle injury.

The timeframe for his return has not yet been announced, but insider Fabrizio Romano confirmed that he will not be able to assist his team this coming weekend. It should be noted that yesterday, Chelsea secured a 3-1 victory over Cardiff City away in the quarterfinals of the English League Cup.

The Brazilian forward did not participate in that match. The 18-year-old, valued at €80 million, last played on December 13 in a game against Everton, where he came on as a substitute in the 81st minute.

In the 2025/2026 season, counting both his appearances for Chelsea and his prior performances in Brazil, Estevao has played in 58 matches, scoring 17 goals and providing 6 assists. Read “Zamin” on Telegram!
