PSG targets the loan of Estêvão Willian to replace Kvaratskhelia
PSG Mercato – Paris seeks to compensate for the absence of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia by considering the winter loan of Estêvão Willian, a young Brazilian winger from Chelsea, according to several rumours circulating in recent hours. The Parisian club thus wants to preserve its offensive potential ahead of the winter transfer window.
Offensive need after the injury
The serious injury to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia forces Paris Saint‑Germain to quickly look for a solution for its left wing. The club has already identified an interesting lead to strengthen its attack, according to sources close to the transfer market.
Recent rumours indicate that Chelsea would be willing to loan Estêvão Willian in order to give him more playing time. This option, mentioned several months ago, is gaining traction today due to Kvaratskhelia's prolonged absence.

Profile and loan conditions
Estêvão, recruited from Palmeiras for 45 M€ plus 16.5 M€ in bonuses, is now valued at 80 M€ by Transfermarkt. Aged 19, the Brazilian international stands out for his technique, speed and ability to beat an opponent one‑on‑one, mainly on the right side.
At Chelsea, offensive competition limits his opportunities, resulting in only 29 minutes of Premier League this season. This lack of minutes could prompt the London side to consider a loan during the winter transfer window, while allowing the club to give the young player more responsibility.
For Paris Saint‑Germain, the loan would represent a way to strengthen the offensive sector without immediately committing a large expense for a permanent transfer. The young Brazilian could also benefit from Luis Enrique's working environment, giving the coach an additional option on the right flank, different from Kvaratskhelia's profile.
