Estevao's injury is not as bad as claimed chelsea The youngster is still expected to be fit for the World Cup this summer.
Journalist Eduardo Burgos Everyone has been urged to "take it easy" on the 18-year-old after reports today suggested the 18-year-old could be sidelined for a long period of time.
World Cup worries
Estevao suffered a hamstring injury during last weekend's Premier League defeat to Manchester United.
Reports in England then said it was a grade four injury, ruling the Brazilian out of Chelsea for the remainder of the season. He also claimed that he is unlikely to play for Brazil in the World Cup this summer.
But Burgos wants to pour cold water on the situation. He emphasizes that everyone should "take a relaxed approach" about moving forward.
According to their information, Estevao will not play in Chelsea's remaining matches. But he still has a good chance of making it to the World Cup. His recovery ahead of the tournament is now 'absolute priority'.
He says in another tweet That a hamstring injury will keep Estevao out for '20-30 days'. The forward is currently avoiding surgery.
Brazil is now in limbo and waiting to see what happens. His hope is to miss as many group stages as possible. GE Globo reports that Estevao is in talks with Chelsea Will have to return to Brazil for treatment. This will allow the Brazilian to remain in constant contact with the Blues regarding his situation.
chelsea in control
However, Chelsea will want to ensure that Estevao is not rushed into recovering from such an injury if he is to become Brazil's poster boy this summer.
This is the fifth injury for this young player this season. While the age of two of them has been reduced due to illness, This is his second hamstring injuryAnd he also suffered a muscle injury in December.
He also had a hamstring injury which ruled him out for 19 days during his stay at Palmeiras. This should raise alarm bells, as he returned from a 25-day absence only last month. That was also his hamstring.
It would be foolish at least to recall him prematurely just for the World Cup. Especially when at the age of 18 he will have a lot of tournaments ahead of him.
