Est\u00eav\u00e3o is polite, he is humble, he wants to learn. His family does a great job there. We are happy not only with his performance, but because he is a good kid.<\/p><cite>Enzo Maresca<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nMaresca believes that Est\u00eav\u00e3o needs a bit more time to adapt to the Premier League, just as happened to Palmer.\n\nThe coach also highlighted the importance of having players like Est\u00eav\u00e3o and Palmer, who attract fans.\n\nChelsea defeated Ajax in an exciting match, where Est\u00eav\u00e3o shone and almost scored a spectacular goal.\n\nThe match was marked by the expulsion of Kenneth Taylor from Ajax and goals from Marc Guiu, Mois\u00e9s Caicedo, Wout Weghorst, Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez, and Tyrique George.\n\nChelsea made history by having three teenagers on the Champions League goalscorers list, and Reggie Watts became the club&#8217;s youngest player in the competition.\n\nMaresca explained that the club&#8217;s strategy is based on giving opportunities to young talents.\n\nThe coach highlighted that the team will continue working with young prospects, knowing that there will be difficult moments, but he trusts in their desire to learn and improve.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maresca Praises Est\u00eav\u00e3o and Compares Him to Palmer Coach Enzo Maresca expressed his enthusiasm for coaching Est\u00eav\u00e3o, highlighting his potential to follow in the footsteps of Cole Palmer at Chelsea.
