Ancelotti sees Est\u00eav\u00e3o in the 2026 World Cup<\/h2>\n\n\nThe Brazil coach, Carlo Ancelotti, has confirmed that Chelsea’s young star, Est\u00eav\u00e3o, has a guaranteed place in the 2026 World Cup.\n\nEst\u00eav\u00e3o, 18 years old, has shone at Stamford Bridge since his arrival from Palmeiras for \u00a329 million ($38 million) in the summer. The winger has scored three goals in five Champions League appearances, including a brilliant individual goal in the victory against FC Barcelona.\n\n\n
\n\n

Based on how Est\u00eav\u00e3o has played in the last six months, I think so. Est\u00eav\u00e3o will be in the World Cup.<\/p>\n\nCarlo Ancelotti<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\nEst\u00eav\u00e3o, who debuted with Brazil in September 2024, has earned a place in Ancelotti’s starting eleven and has scored four goals in his last three appearances with the national team. He has a total of five goals in 11 matches with the Brazil shirt.\n\nAncelotti highlighted the player’s uniqueness.\n\n\n
\n\n

He is a very, very special player. He is very different because he has great natural talent. It doesn’t mean that he is 100% developed due to his age. As for his talent, he can’t improve it, but what he can do is give it continuity.<\/p>\n\nCarlo Ancelotti<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nEst\u00eav\u00e3o has played 11 matches in the Premier League with Enzo Maresca’s team, starting in five of them.\n\nAncelotti is optimistic about the way Chelsea is helping Est\u00eav\u00e3o develop.\n\n“What can help is the physical aspect, tactical learning, and mental focus because he is very young. He is progressing very, very well at Chelsea. I haven’t spoken to Chelsea, but I’m sure they are doing a specific program with him in this regard. I think the national team has to take advantage of this talent because it is very great,” he concluded.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
