Chelsea star in same boat as Estevao Willian as Xabi Alonso stance clear – ‘I can’t do anything’

Geovany Quenda shares a similar situation with teammate Estevao Willian as both young wingers work for limited minutes under Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso. Quenda arrived from Sporting CP for around £40 million during the summer transfer window but has logged only 27 minutes across two appearances. Despite the limited action, sources close to the 19-year-old state he is remaining patient and confident that opportunities will increase.

Estevao has similarly played just 23 Premier League minutes this season, prompting Alonso to dismiss speculation of frustration and reaffirm his commitment to hungry young players. Quenda publicly echoed that stance while on international duty with Portugal Under-21s, stating he remains focused on doing his best and respects the manager's tactical decisions.
