WHAT HAPPENED?
After combining with team-mate Jhon Jhon outside the Gremio box, the 17-year-old beat a defender before he unleashed a long-range effort that sailed into the top corner. His 77-minute goal secured a point for his side in their Serie A clash.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Estevao then recreated Cole Palmer’s famous ‘cold’ celebration – and not for the first time. The teenager’s celebration is a nod at his imminent transfer to Chelsea. The Brazil Under 17 star has agreed to join Chelsea, though the transfer will not go through until the summer of 2025, when he will be 18.

WHAT NEXT?
Estevao will hope to keep shining with Palmeiras over the next year as he looks to develop enough to secure a place in Chelsea’s first-team when he eventually meets up with his team-mates in London a year from now.
