Estevao Willian has made a bright start to life as a Chelsea player, and he is someone the Blues fans will be hoping to see in the Champions League opener against Bayern Munich on Wednesday night.
The winger missed Chelsea’s last Premier League game against Brentford on Saturday night, and that cast a doubt over his availability for the game on Wednesday.
However, Enzo Maresca’s team has issued a positive update on the player’s availability for the upcoming game against Bayern Munich.
Following an impressive start to life at Chelsea, Estevao Willian has received praise from some Chelsea legends, including John Obi Mikel, who described the 18-year-old as a “proper player”.
He should be full of confidence right now after managing to score his first goal for Brazil over the international break.
Chelsea will be relying on the talented Brazilian to help them unlock a resolute Bayern Munich defence.

Chelsea issue positive Estevao Willian update ahead of Champions League opener
Ahead of Chelsea’s Champions League opener against Bayern Munich, Maresca is expected to give a complete update on Estevao Willian’s fitness and availability for the game.
But on Tuesday, Estevao Willian posted a couple of pictures of himself training on his Instagram stories, which will certainly delight the fans.
Before the game against Brentford, Maresca confirmed that the player did not feature due to illness, but he seems to have recovered from that.
The winger had an impressive outing against West Ham United in the Premier League, where he set up Enzo Fernandez for one of Chelsea’s goals with some fantastic play down the right wing.
He will be hoping to make a similar impact against Bayern Munich, though he will have his task cut out for him.
