Chelsea's new £48 million acquisition, Estevao Willian, exits the ground in tears.

Estevao Willian, a new Chelsea signing, was forced to leave the ground in tears after sustaining an injury for Palmeiras.

The 17-year-old just agreed to join the Blues, with the Premier League club paying €34 million on front and €23 million in add-ons.

The Brazilian will, however, join Chelsea next year when he reaches 18.

However, Chelsea will be concerned after Estevao's most recent appearance for Palmeiras ended prematurely.

The offensive midfielder was forced off in the second half of Saturday's 2-0 loss to Vitoria.

Estevao has only recently healed from strains in his left ankle and knee before returning this weekend.

He has now suffered another setback by rolling his left ankle throughout the game.

Estevao was treated by Palmeiras' medical team before leaving the pitch via buggies.
