Estevao faces exclusion from Chelsea’s upcoming Premier League clash with West Ham on Saturday, citing personal reasons for his absence.
Recent Performance and Squad Changes
The 18-year-old forward featured as a starter in Chelsea’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Napoli in the Champions League away match on Wednesday evening. However, manager Liam Rosenior has omitted him from the squad for the Stamford Bridge encounter, allowing the young player to return to Brazil.
Rosenior implements seven alterations to the lineup that triumphed against Napoli. Players starting against West Ham include Benoit Badiashile, Trevor Chalobah, Jorrel Hato, Jamie Gittens, Alejandro Garnacho, Cole Palmer, and Liam Delap.
West Ham’s Lineup Adjustments
In response to their 3-1 home win over Sunderland last weekend, West Ham introduces a single change. Malick Diouf steps in at left-back, replacing Oliver Scarles.
Adama Traore, fresh from his transfer completion from Fulham earlier this week, takes a spot on the substitutes’ bench for the visitors.
