After making a concerted effort to bring South America’s brightest talents to Stamford Bridge in the Clearlake era, Willian represents the latest show of faith in another unproven youngster, the teenager potentially arriving in a package worth up to £60 million.Willian, meanwhile, should be joined at Chelsea by another baby-faced Brazilian. After striking a deal with Palmeiras, Enzo Maresca’s side have now agreed personal terms to bring Pedro Lima to West London too.Photo by Gledston Tavares/Eurasia Sport Images/Getty ImagesChelsea beat Premier League rivals to Pedro Lima dealStill only 17 and despite only making his senior debut in January, Lima is already a first-team regular for Sport Recife. He played every minute in the victory over Nautico in the final of the Campeonato Pernambucano, his buccaneering performances on the right-hand side catching the eye of numerous high-profile clubs on the other side of the Atlantic.HITC understands that there was interest from Spanish giants Real Madrid and Atletico. Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have also enquired about Lima’s availability over the last few months. Sources have told us, however, that Chelsea have won the race after agreeing personal terms with the Brazil under-17 international.Lima looks set to become the latest South American teenager to put pen to paper, after Deivid Washington, Angelo Gabriel, Kendry Paez, Andrey Santos and more. MORE CHELSEA STORIES Lima, we have been told, will arrive in London in July, following his 18th birthday. Chelsea plan to send the full-back on loan to their France-based sister club Strasbourg next term. Santos and Angelo spent the 2023/24 Ligue 1 season under Patrick Vieira in Alsace.“There has been progress in the negotiations (with Chelsea), Lima’s agent, Renatao Guimaraes, tells Globo Esporte. “But it’s not over yet.“The salary part is settled, but there are still some clauses to be defined in the contract, some bonuses.”From Stamford Bridge to Strasbourg againThe Chelsea connection, meanwhile, is yet to win over Strasbourg supporters, many unhappy about the arrival of unproven teenagers while some of the club’s senior stars were heading out the door.“Perhaps people outside don’t see the progression as quickly as they would like, but we can’t be blinded by the fact that we’re linked to Chelsea,” former Arsenal and Manchester City midfielder Vieira told L’Equipe in October.“You have to look at things globally with last season and next season as well. You need to give the recruits the time to flourish. I knew that when I came here.“We are starting a new cycle and we are all in harmony about where we are today and where we want to go tomorrow. But I know that the most important thing in this business is results.”READ: 50 MOST LIKELY PREMIER LEAGUE, EFL AND EUROPEAN SUMMER 2024 FOOTBALL TRANSFERSRelated Topics ChelseaEstevao WillianExclusiveLa LigaManchester Unitedpatrick vieiraPremier LeagueReal MadridTottenham Hotspur Related Posts More in Chelsea More in Chelsea
