Spain's most relevant newspaper highlights Estêvão's brands

This Thursday (14), the Spanish newspaper Mark published an article praising Estêvão, top scorer in the Brazilian Championship and one of Palmeiras' most important players this season. Nicknamed “Messinho” as a child, the striker had his performance and numbers highlighted in the international media.

International spotlight

The headline “Messinho is the King” brings to light a joke made at the time when the young man began to gain relevance and conquer the spotlight, pointing out Estêvão as one of the main Brazilian revelations today.

Considered one of the main triumphs of the alviverde team in 2024, the number 41 was praised not only for his large number of goals, but also for the eight assists given throughout the tournament.

In an interview with the Spanish outlet, Verdão's youth coordinator, João Paulo Sampaio, stated that the attacker “is the best player to emerge after Neymar”. In addition to him, the report also contains testimonials from other athletes about Estêvão's performance.

“I hope it continues to shine and fascinate everyone in football. Will be a genius”, said Neymar.

Closed with Chelsea

With the sale to Chelsea, which could reach R$358 million, the final stretch of the 2024 season marks the beginning of the farewell to the 17-year-old jewel, who will leave Palmeiras after competing in the 2025 Club World Cup.

Compared to recent legends in the football world, it is true that the star will not play another full season for Verdão, but until then he continues to seek new numbers and break more records.

The Palmeiras team returns to the field next Wednesday (20), at 6 pm, away from home against Bahia. The match is valid for the thirty-fourth round of the Brasileirão, and could bring Palmeiras even closer to Botafogo, the current leader of the competition.
