Estevao Willian, Omari Kellyman, Marc Guiu, and Renato Veiga have all been acquired in the past few weeks, in addition to the experienced tandem of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Tosin Adarabioyo. Gabriel Mec, a Brazilian midfielder, has emerged as another adolescent on Chelsea’s transfer radar. The Blues are demonstrating a strong interest in him.

It is also perhaps unsurprising that Chelsea recruiters have expressed interest in Gabriel Mec, who has the potential to become the next Neymar. Analyst Ben Mattinson wrote on X, which was previously known as Twitter, that Gabriel Mec is generating significant interest in Brazil. A Brazilian combatant who is adept at using both feet.

“He is from the same academy (Grêmio) as Ronaldinho and has a playstyle reminiscent of Neymar.” It is difficult not to be enthusiastic about him. Mec is capable of performing abilities at an accelerated pace, which enables him to deceive defenders with ease. He is a genuine Brazilian relic, and it is a pleasure to observe him.

Estevao, an intriguing Brazilian talent, has already been welcomed by Chelsea, and it is evident that the club is interested in bringing Mec on board as well. However, both players will be eligible to join the club upon reaching the age of 18. Kendry Paez is an additional young talent who has been verified as a Chelsea player. However, his arrival is pending, and it is possible that it will not occur until after May 2025.

Chelsea is also considering additional senior additions, and negotiations regarding Mec may progress quickly. Maresca is interested in acquiring a right-footed winger. Nico Williams has been the primary candidate for transfer, although Athletic Bilbao is eager to retain his services. If he does depart, it is probable that he will join Barcelona.
