After reaching an agreement with the much sought-after Brazilian star, Endrick, La Liga winners Real Madrid are getting closer to signing him
Endrick is reportedly very close to signing with Real Madrid, according to renowned Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano. This Brazilian phenom and Los Blancos have reached an individual contract agreement. The transfer fee for the much sought-after Palmeiras striker is expected to be in excess of €70 million.
This year officially cemented Endrick’s place as one of the most sought-after players on the transfer market. Despite just being 16, the adolescent prodigy’s popularity has skyrocketed. The youngster has already made it into Palmeiras’ first-team squad after excelling in youth football back home.
During the closing weeks of the season, the Brazilian sensation played for the Brazilian champions. And he set new benchmarks virtually every time he played, scoring three times and adding an assist in seven contests. Real Madrid is among the teams showing interest in Endrick because of his development.
Poaching children before they become famous is something Florentino Perez supports. Players like Vinicius Junior, Federico Valverde, and Rodrygo Goes have flourished under Real Madrid’s positive philosophy. Real Madrid’s long-term vision is on full display with the signing of Endrick.
After the young man’s success at the Copinha, the Merengues began targeting him. And over the year, Los Blancos’ attention has grown exponentially. Meanwhile, Real Madrid has been compelled to act in response to the appearance of the other bidders, and they have been drafting an offer to sign the player.
Fabrizio Romano recently said that formal negotiations for Endrick were taking on between Real Madrid and Palmeiras. However, the current La Liga champions have already settled on individual terms, making them the clear frontrunners. The much sought-after Brazilian prodigy is set to join Real Madrid in a deal costing over €70 million.
The names of Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea have been mentioned in connection with Endrick in recent rumours. However, Real Madrid will likely beat off the competition to sign the 16-year-old Palmeiras prodigy in 2024, when he will be eligible to sign a professional contract. It remains to be seen if the other bidders can make a comeback in the race.
