Barcelona sporting director Deco is reportedly monitoring Estevao Willian’s situation at Chelsea, where the Brazilian has played just 23 minutes so far this season. Diario Sport says he is growing frustrated, but there is no indication he wants to leave.
Diario Sport also reports disagreements between Estevao and Chelsea over his reluctance to keep gaining muscle mass. The report says he fears it could cost him speed and attacking ability.
Deco previously said one reason Barcelona did not pursue Estevao was that Lamine Yamal plays in the same position and has similar characteristics. Estevao’s agent cited Barcelona’s difficult finances as the reason a deal did not materialize and said the player still has “a special affection” for the club.
