Chelsea\u2019s desire to make pure profit on player sales could now leave them in a tricky situation when it comes to wonderkid Estevao Willian.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Brazilian winger is one of the best signings Chelsea have made in the past few years, and optimism remains that he will be fit and firing for the start of the new season.<\/p>\n

\n

The club should be doing everything possible to make the situation for Estevao comfortable at Stamford Bridge, given there is always the fear the likes of Real Madrid will make a move to sign him.<\/p>\n

Estevao Willian may be disappointed with Chelsea\u2019s sale of Andrey Santos<\/h2>\n

Estevao had revealed in an interview with the Chelsea website that he was very good friends with Andrey Santos, although that friendship is set to come to an end at club level.<\/p>\n

Santos is set to join Manchester United for a fee of around \u00a350m, and while that is seen as good business by the club, the knock-on effect it could have through the first team squad has perhaps not been appreciated.<\/p>\n

On the pitch, the Brazilian is easily replaceable, and the Blues can comfortably add some physical presence to their midfield to replace him.<\/p>\n

However, personal friendships are becoming more of a theme at Stamford Bridge, with this young squad growing up together.<\/p>\n

It perhaps explains Chelsea\u2019s backing of Tosin Adarabioyo, given the fact that he is very close with star man Cole Palmer.<\/p>\n

The South American core at the club have become close, however after Santos there could be another major exit this summer.<\/p>\n

Enzo Fernandez is being strongly linked with an exit to Real Madrid, which would currently leave the Blues very light in midfield.<\/p>\n

All the signs from Estevao\u2019s time at the club so far suggest that he is very happy at Stamford Bridge, although it remains to be seen how the rapid exit of Santos will affect his feelings going forward.<\/p>\n
