Chelsea fans will get another look at Brazilian wonderkid Estevao when the Blues face AC Milan in their final pre-season friendly of the summer.

Chelsea are set to ring the changes for their second game in three days.

Cole Palmer should get the nod from the off after being withdrawn at half-time against Leverkusen. Marc Cucurella, Moises Caicedo and Trevoh Chalobah were also given 45 minutes on Friday.

Filip Jorgensen played all 90 minutes, so Robert Sanchez is expected to come in. Gabriel Slonina will likely be on the bench.

Substitutes Joao Pedro, Jamie Gittens, Reece James, and Pedro Neto will be looking to start after limited minutes against Leverkusen.

Captain Enzo Fernandez was the only outfield player to remain on the bench on Friday, so will surely start.

Chelsea predicted XI: Sanchez; James, Chalobah, Tosin, Cucurella; Fernandez, Caicedo, Gittens, Palmer, Neto, Joao Pedro

Doubts: Badiashile, Lavia,

Injured: Fofana, Colwill

Time and date: 3pm BST on Sunday, August 10, 2025
