Premier League
The Liverpool transfer market has contacted the entourage of Estevao, a 19-year-old Brazilian winger, to inquire about his willingness to play at Anfield and is studying an operation that could reach up to 117 million euros. Chelsea, for now, is not considering selling the player and is negotiating a contract improvement during September 2026.
Liverpool puts Estevao on its agenda
The contact from Liverpool comes after a season start with little playing time for Estevao. The Brazilian has only played 20 minutes in three Premier League matches, all as a substitute, according to Opta Analyst records.
This situation has led the English club to directly consult the player's entourage. According to the information published this week by 'TEAM talk,' Liverpool aims to verify if Estevao would be willing to halt renewal talks with Chelsea before considering a possible transfer.
The amount discussed for the transfer reaches 100 million pounds, equivalent to about 117 million euros. This figure corresponds to the possibility being studied by the club and is not a formal offer accepted by Chelsea.
The interest is also explained by the situation in Arne Slot's attack. Liverpool lost Mohamed Salah on a free transfer in the summer and, despite bringing in Bradley Barcola for 123 million pounds, they continue to seek alternatives for the right flank.

Chelsea does not want to sell Estevao
Chelsea's current stance is against a departure. The club considers Estevao a piece for the future and, despite his limited Premier League minutes, is working on improving the conditions of his contract.
The Brazilian's current contract runs until June 2033, so Chelsea does not face contractual pressure to negotiate his sale. Recent reports also place the internal valuation between 110 and 120 million euros.
His performance in the first season justifies the club's long-term commitment. Estevao played 36 games, with 8 goals and 3 assists, during the 2025/26 season, according to Chelsea's official statistics.
In the current season, his participation has decreased. The forward has only accumulated 20 minutes in the Premier League, along with 80 minutes in the League Cup against Luton.
Therefore, the contractual situation is the main obstacle for Liverpool. Estevao has seven more seasons left in his contract with Chelsea, and the London club is already working on an extension with a salary improvement, so the 117 million euros could trigger negotiations only if the ‘Blues’ alter their stance.
The next move will be monitoring Estevao's entourage in the coming months: Liverpool will have to decide whether to turn the contact into a formal proposal, while Chelsea tries to secure his renewal and keep the Brazilian at Stamford Bridge beyond 2033.
