The new pearl of the Brazilian football Endrick has been attracting interest from Europe’s top clubs. Douglas Ramos, father of the talented youngster, told UOL Esporte: “We will travel to Madrid at the end of this month. The idea is to get a first-hand look at the facilities of Los Blancos, at the invitation of the club itself. It will not, of course, be a purely tourist trip.”

There will also be discussion about Endrick's future. "After that conversation, Real Madrid will wait for our response to determine whether they should come and make an offer to Palmeiras," he continued.

Real Madrid have been joined in the race for the player’s signature by Barcelona, PSG and Chelsea. The latter two, as reported by ESPN earlier this week, have submitted offers of €45 million. At Palmeiras, they are adamant: €60 million or nothing. It remains to be seen if the dynamics of the negotiation change after the visit to Madrid.

Real Madrid are skilled at persuading young prospects that the Santiago Bernabéu is the ideal destination. Similar to Vinicius and Rodrygo, Endrick cannot legally leave Brazil until he turns 18 due to FIFA rules. The signing could, however, be finished sooner, as it was with Vini and Rodrygo, who were signed for, respectively, €45 million and €40 million.
