Estevao chant: Lyrics, tune and story behind Chelsea’s anthem for their young winger

Chelsea fans have a new Brazilian winger to cheer on at Stamford Bridge, and so far, so good for the talented Estevao.

Since signing for the club from Palmeiras in the summer of 2025, the teenager has brought some much-needed flair to the Premier League, and although that may ultimately get trained out of him, for now, he is a joy to watch.

To show their appreciation for their new maverick, the Chelsea faithful at Stamford Bridge have already given him his own chant.

Of the many Chelsea fan songs, the Estevao chant has become a stadium staple at Stamford Bridge, often swelling when he receives the ball near the touchline.

Estevao's chant is sung to a rhythmic, carnival-style beat that nods to Estevao's Brazilian roots.

Fans stretch the vowels on ‘Este' and snap the final ‘vao' with claps on the offbeat. The tune blends samba-infused rhythm with terrace percussion.

On matchdays, the chant often starts in the Matthew Harding Stand before sweeping across Stamford Bridge, turning the stadium into a wave of sound whenever the young winger bursts down the flank.

FGG says

The Estevao chant is not just another popular terrace tune; it is the sound of a fanbase rediscovering its spark. In a time when football support often feels manufactured, Chelsea fans have organically created something that feels authentic, rhythmic, and deeply tied to the player's identity.

The chant's samba pulse mirrors Estevao Willian's flair and youth, blending Brazilian joy with the raw passion of Stamford Bridge. It is a spontaneous, inclusive and symbolic of a new generation of Chelsea support that thrives on emotion rather than nostalgia.

More than a melody, the Estevao Willian chant reflects football's best truth: when talent meets genuine connection, the noise writes its story.
