Chelsea fans will have to wait to get another look at Brazilian wonderkid Estevao when the Blues face AC Milan in their final pre-season friendly of the summer.
Estevao scored on his first Chelsea appearance as they beat Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 on Friday, but the 18-year-old is on the bench this afternoon.

Chelsea have made sweeping changes for their second game in three days.
Cole Palmer gets the nod from the off after being withdrawn at half-time against Leverkusen, while Marc Cucurella, Moises Caicedo and Trevoh Chalobah all return to the XI after being given 45 minutes on Friday.
Filip Jorgensen played all 90 minutes, so Robert Sanchez starts in goal, with Gabriel Slonina on the bench.
Joao Pedro starts up top, replacing Liam Delap. Pedro Neto and Jamie Gittens line up either side of Palmer to complete the front four.
Captain Enzo Fernandez was the only outfield player to remain on the bench on Friday, so gets his chance to start today.

Reggie Walsh, 16, is on the bench after signing a scholarship deal earlier this summer.
