There’s no doubt this is the future star of Brazilian football.

Details: After 18-year-old winger Estevão of London’s Chelsea and the Brazil national team converted a penalty in a friendly against Tunisia, he became the second youngest player in Brazil’s history to reach five international goals.

Leading this exclusive list is the legendary Pelé, who achieved the milestone at just 17 years and 207 days old. Estevão reached it at 18 years and 208 days.

Estevão surpassed the likes of Coutinho, Ronaldinho, and Neymar in this ranking.

For the Seleção, Estevão has found the net against Tunisia, Chile, Senegal, and scored a brace against South Korea.

This season, Estevão is playing for Chelsea, having joined the London club from Palmeiras this summer for €45 million. The Brazilian has made 16 appearances for the Blues, scoring 4 goals and providing one assist.
