Bayern Munich make late attempt to hijack Chelsea's bid for Palmeiras wonderkid Estevao 'Messinho' Willian despite starlet holding talks with Blues over Premier League move

According to <a href="https://www.goal.com/br/listas/bayern-promete-proposta-estevao-palmeiras-tenta-bater-chelsea/bltd565712eedc998e4" target="_blank">GOAL Brazil</a>, the German giants are making a late attempt to try and sign the highly touted Brazil winger this summer despite the 17-year-old having already been in advanced talks with Chelsea. As per the reports, Bayern have already initiated contact with the winger and will try to secure his signing this summer before he completes his move in the summer of 2025.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The report has suggested that Bayern are set to formalize a bid soon that will be better than the Premier League club's bid but still have a lower fixed fee than the starlet's release clause of €45 million (£38.7m/$48.5m).

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite all of the interest <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-sg/lists/messinho-palmeiras-abel-ferreira-chelsea-transfer-estevao-willian-eur55m/bltdb476a4781397195#cs267e2e20a6b1909f" target="_blank">Palmeiras boss Abel Ferreira has maintained that he wants the club to keep the 17-year-old at the club at least until 2027</a>. The former Sporting defender turned manager has started affording Messinho more and more chances in the first team and the teenager has given the 44-year-old coach a worthy return on that trust.

DID YOU KNOW?

Regardless of which club signs the 17-year-old this summer, they will have to wait until the summer of 2025 to bring him physically to the club due to the age restriction on such transfers of players under the age of 18.

WHAT NEXT FOR MESSINHO?
