Chelsea are “absolutely” one of the teams vying for the transfer of Palmeiras wunderkind Endrick, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The Blues have long been linked to Endrick, but Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are teaming up to go after the Brazilian striker, who looks like one of the most exciting prospects in world football right now.
The 16-year-old is sure to earn himself a big move in no time, and Romano says there’s not much going on just yet as Chelsea, Real Madrid and PSG all fight for his signature.
The three clubs have yet to negotiate with both the player and his club, so it could take some time to make concrete progress on this one, but Romano insists Chelsea are definitely in the running, as things stand.

Still, one problem could be that Real Madrid reportedly have an “excellent” relationship with Endrick’s representatives, according to the transfer news insider.
“I understand that it is the same three clubs in the race: Chelsea, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain,” he said.
“All of them are still in the race, and PSG is the only club that has made an official proposal a few days ago, but from what they tell me there is still no agreement with Palmeiras. Clubs will also need to come to an agreement with the player and his family, not just his club.
“PSG is still there, Chelsea is absolutely still there and Real Madrid have a great relationship with their agents. Let’s see what happens.”
