Chelsea fans will get their first chance to watch their new wonderkid at the Fifa Club World Cup... but he will not be playing for their team.
Brazil winger Estevao Willian will join the Blues from Palmeiras this summer in a £29m deal that was agreed in May 2024.
But the Sao Paolo club included a clause that meant he would play for them in the Club World Cup, now under way in the United States, before joining Chelsea.
The teams are in different groups but could meet in the quarter-finals.
