Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur and Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal want to sign Endrick, but it seems that is Paris Saint-Germain who have taken the first steps to securing the services of the Palmeiras striker.
The Times reported this month that Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City all are keen on securing the services of Endrick.
The 16-year-old striker cannot move to Europe until he turns 18, but he can agree on a deal now.
Endrick has a release clause of €60 million (£52.12 million) in his current contract at Palmeiras, according to 90min.
Brazilian journalist Jorge Nicola has said on his YouTube channel that Tottenham want to sign Endrick.
Now, Arsenal and Tottenham may have their eyes on the Brazilian prodigy, but it is French powerhouse PSG who have reportedly taken the first step towards securing his services.
PSG bid for Tottenham and Arsenal target Endrick
Well-known and well-respected journalist Fabrizio Romano has reported on his YouTube channel that the first official bid for the Palmeiras striker has come from PSG.
However, thankfully for Tottenham and Arsenal, there is no agreement yet.
Romano said, as transcribed by TBR: “I’ve spoken about Endrick multiple times because he’s one of the best talents in the world.
“This boy has something special, he’s a striker, he’s scoring goals, he has some leadership, and so Endrick will be a top player in the future.
“This is why the best clubs in Europe are fighting to sign him. There are three club as front runners [to sign Endrick], Real Madrid, Chelsea and PSG.
“Finally, there is the first official proposal for Endrick. The only club to make an official bid is Paris Saint-Germain. It’s still not agreed with the player, it’s absolutely open.
Palmeiras want a €60m [£52m] package because the release clause is €60m, but in this case keep an eye on the package including bonuses and add-ons.”
