Chelsea legend John Terry has highlighted the noticeable physical development of young winger Estevao, praising the Brazilian for appearing stronger and sharper as he continues to adapt to life at Stamford Bridge.
Terry believes Estevao is making encouraging progress both on and off the pitch. After watching the youngster in action and seeing him during a gym session, the former Chelsea captain feels there are clear signs that the teenager is becoming more physically prepared for the demands of English football.
“Estevao looked good, he looked sharp. He looks a bit bigger and stronger,” Terry said. “I saw him in the gym the other day and he looks like he’s developing and getting stronger.”
The comments will be encouraging for Chelsea supporters, particularly as expectations continue to grow around Estevao. His technical ability and attacking instincts have already generated plenty of excitement, while his physical development could help him cope with the intensity and pace of the Premier League.
For Chelsea, continued progress from Estevao could be another positive sign as the club looks to develop the Brazilian into an important player for the future.
