    One of the most sought-after young players in football, the 16-year-old forward is being pursued by clubs like Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain.

    Clubs are vying to sign him to a contract even though he cannot leave his current club Palmeiras until 2024. In an effort to land the wonderkid, Chelsea upped their charm offensive in November, inviting the player’s family to the team’s Cobham training facility and enlisting Thiago Silva’s assistance in selling the idea.

    After that visit, reports indicated Endrick Felipe’s choice was at one point to join Chelsea, but UOL Sport now asserts the adolescent prefers a move to Real.

    Last month, PSG made a preliminary offer of €45 million for the teenager, which Palmeiras promptly rejected in favor of bids that would satisfy his €60 million release clause.

    Real Madrid will instead offer the majority of the price up front, with the remaining portion coming in bonuses and within reachable objectives.

    According to the source, Palmeiras is content with such conditions, and an agreement is only a “matter of time” away.

    In recent years, Real has acquired two of Brazil’s top young players under similar circumstances.

    In 2017, Vinicius Jr., at 16 years old, was acquired by Real from Flamengo for €46 million, making him the second-most expensive acquisition in Brazilian league history.

    They signed Santos’ 17-year-old Rodrygo in 2018, and both are now important players in the Spanish city.

    Endrick Felipe made his Palmeiras senior debut in October and has since scored three goals for the team.

    The athlete has the mentality to match his potential to push him all the way to the top, according to Joao Paulo Sampaio, head of the Palmeiras academy, who helped monitor his growth at the Brazilian giants.

    ‘If injuries respect him, I don’t see a ceiling for him,” Sampaio told AS. ‘As far as is humanly possible. He has quality, a strong personality and a champion mentality. In that regard, he resembles Cristiano [Ronaldo].

    ‘He trains hard, is kind and has humility. We love him very much because he makes himself loved. He tries to please everyone around him. He has everything to be a world star in the future.’
