Chelsea Debutant Estevao Steals the Show in 2-0 Pre-Season Win

On August 8, 2025, Chelsea opened their pre-season campaign with an impressive 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen at Stamford Bridge. The match was highlighted by the standout performance of Willian Estevao, who made his Chelsea debut and wasted no time in winning over the fans.

Estevao, playing his first minutes in Chelsea blue, combined impressively with teammates Cole Palmer and Andrey Santos, and marked his debut with a goal after just 17 minutes. The Blues returned to west London with remarkable energy, dominating their German visitors despite having just two matches to prepare for the new Premier League season.

The match also saw the exclusion of Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku from the Chelsea squad, as they push for moves away from the club. However, it was Estevao's arrival rather than any imminent departures that stole the show. The young midfielder oozing confidence as he pulled the strings, dictating the pace of the attack.

Chelsea let off the gas somewhat in the second half, but Joao Pedro still managed to double their advantage in injury time, sealing a confidence-boosting result for the Blues. They will return to action on Sunday, hosting AC Milan at Stamford Bridge before turning attention to their first Premier League outing against Crystal Palace.
