Estevao considering move away from Chelsea?

Chelsea winger Estevao could consider a move away from the Blues this winter amid limited playing time under manager Xabi Alonso.

The Brazil international has been a fringe player for the west London giants this campaign, with Alonso having some reservations about picking him.

Estevao has played just 47 minutes of Premier League football this campaign, and he did not make the XI for the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie at Liverpool.

This has reportedly increased the frustration in the player's camp, and there is a belief that he may have to move on to progress in his young career.

Chelsea are not contemplating a permanent exit for the Palmeiras graduate, but there is a possibility that he could move out on loan if required.

Alonso will have the final say of what happens with Estevao come the New Year. As things stand, Estevao does not feature in the regular plans of the Spanish tactician. There appears to be a possible breakdown in the relationship.
