Chelsea-bound wonderkid Estevao Willian hits another landmark in Brazil's Serie A with latest Palmeiras goal

<p>Estevao Willian was on target for Palmeiras in their 2-2 draw with Fortaleza in a Brazilian Serie A clash on Sunday. The youngster converted a spot-kick that eventually earned his team an important point as he reached yet another landmark in Brazil football. With his 11th goal of the season, the 18-year-old equalled Flamengo's Pedro's tally to become the league's joint-highest goalscorer. The youngster is also the league's highest assist provider with eight to his name in the 2024-25 campaign.</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="pt" dir="ltr">11+8 - Estêvão se igualou a Pedro, do Flamengo, na artilharia do Brasileirão Série A 2024 (11 gols cada).

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Premier League giants Chelsea have an agreement in place that will see the teenage sensation move to west London in July 2025 – shortly after his 18th birthday. The <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-gbp56m-estevao-willian-deal-palmeiras/blt57be01458e565c74" target="_blank">transfer is likely to be worth as much as £56 million ($73m)</a>. Earlier this month, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/estevao-willian-wonderkid-chelsea-sensation-breaks-neymar-record-messinho-palmeiras-brazil-serie-a/blt9815ff461dbf0b4e#cs43c84a3e36183bb3" target="_blank">he eclipsed Neymar</a> to become the most prolific 17-year-old in the league's history as he reached 17 goal contributions. Until then, the Al-Hilal star held the record of 16 goals and assists which he posted for Santos in 2009. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Messinho's brilliant start to the new season has already earned him two national team caps for the Selecao as he made his international debut in September against Ecuador in a 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying game.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The player will be next seen in action for Palmeiras on November 5 as the Brazilian giants take on Corinthians in a crucial Serie A clash. He has an opportunity to become the highest scorer in the league as Pedro is currently out injured and is likely to miss the remainder of the season. </p>
