Chelsea join European giants in race for Endrick?

Chelsea have reportedly joined the list of clubs wanting to sign Palmeiras starlet Endrick.

At the age of just 16 years, the forward has broken into the first team this season, appearing four times as a substitute, while the teenager has also scored six goals in seven Under-20s games.

Endrick signed his first professional contract with Palmeiras earlier this year, with his contract expiring in 2025.

However, a number of European clubs are believed to have joined the race for Endrick’s signature, with Brazilian journalist Jorge Nicola, via The Sun, claiming that Chelsea are keeping tabs on the forward.

Nicola adds that the Blues have been monitoring Endrick for some time, but they are set to face tough competition from the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain.

The Premier League giants Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur have also been credited with an interest in the highly-rated teenager.
