Chelsea Pre-Season Friendly Sees Estevao Score Against Bayer Leverkusen
English Premier League · 09:29:47 - Monday, 2 November 2026

Chelsea played a pre-season friendly against Bayer Leverkusen in London on August 8, with Cole Palmer celebrating alongside goalscorer Estevao after the Brazilian forward found the net for his new club.

The match at Stamford Bridge marked Estevao's first goal since his summer arrival from Palmeiras, with the 17-year-old showing early signs of linking up effectively with Palmer in the attacking third.

The friendly formed part of Chelsea's preparation for the upcoming Premier League season under manager Enzo Maresca, who has been implementing his tactical approach during the pre-season period.

Further pre-season fixtures are scheduled before the league campaign begins, as the coaching staff continue to evaluate squad options and tactical setups.
