Essugo's early career was significantly shaped by his previous coach at Sporting CP, Amorim, who gave him his debut at just 16, making him the youngest player in the club's history. Now at Chelsea, where he joined for €18.8 million, Essugo acknowledges the support of his former teammates and continues to draw inspiration from both Sporting alumni like Ronaldo and Chelsea legends. His ambition is to make his mark in the Premier League after a successful debut with Chelsea against LAFC at the Club World Cup.
"He brought me to the first team so he helped me a lot, to understand the game, to reach the level I am here now. I am grateful."
"I was the youngest player to debut in the first team in Sporting and it was an amazing feeling. He is a demanding person. He likes to win every time."
