Following Chelsea's victory over Palmeiras in the Club World Cup, Chelsea midfielder Cole Palmer shared details of a brief conversation with new signing Estêvão Willian. Palmer expressed excitement about Estêvão joining Chelsea, telling him, "We are excited for you to join," but noted that Estêvão did not understand a word he said. To bridge the language gap, Palmer later enlisted the help of Portuguese teammate Dário Essugo to translate. Palmer also praised Estêvão as a top player, emphasizing the squad's anticipation for his arrival. The interaction highlighted the language barrier between the English and Brazilian players despite their shared enthusiasm for the upcoming collaboration at Chelsea.
