David Luiz's celebration after scoring a 94th-minute winner at 37 years old to send Flamengo to the top of the table is truly amazing

Y'all don't downplay this boy 🥵...

His first time passing and awareness is insane and that's where he edges Madueke for me... Although Madueke has better finishing

All i can say is Pre-season is gonna be a movie 🙌

- Jhon Durán
- Samu Omorodion
- Marc Guiu
- Maximilian Beier
- Jonathan David

Who's next? 🤔

Jonathan David could be available for £30m this summer.

Head of Palmeiras' academy, Joao Paulo Sampaio on Estêvão's mentality: "When we won the 2022 U-17 Brazilian Championship title, Estevao ended up breaking one of his toes during a decisive game.

But even so he still didn't want to leave [the game], so he came to me at half-time saying, 'I'll go back for the second half'. And I challenged him: 'You better go back.'

And so he had a painkilling injection in his toe and told me, 'I'll go back, score a goal and look for you in the stands to shush you.' That's how strong he is mentally."

It is understood that Chelsea are not thinking in terms of loaning Estevao out to gain further experience -- one of the reasons that he chose the London club. They imagine him immediately fighting for a place in the first team -- along, presumably, with Ecuadorian wonderkid Kendry Paez, who will join them at the same time.
