The situation
The battle to get Endrick has been underway for a long time and Real Madrid is making a serious move. Douglas Ramos, father of the very young talent, revealed it in ‘ UOL Esporte ‘: “We will travel to Madrid at the end of this month” . The idea is none other than to see first-hand the facilities of the white team, invited by the entity itself. And it will not be, logically, a merely tourist trip. There will be a talk with Endrick’s future as a backdrop. “After that conversation, Real Madrid will wait for our response to assess whether they should come and make an offer to Palmeiras ,” added the father. I step forward not only for Madrid, but also for the footballer’s circle by speaking publicly about a potential offer. Endrick has been shaking up the market , based on goals and exhibitions, before he was even of legal age to play for the first team. And as soon as he reached the age of 16 that allowed him to make the leap, he has maintained dynamics at a professional level: he already has three goals and one assist with Verdao , in just 306 minutes of play, spread over seven games. Palmeiras is aware of the jewel they have in their hands, which is why a termination clause of 60 million euros was included in his first professional contract. An amount that does not drive away bidders, since the ‘hype’ that accompanies the very young striker turns such an amount into an anecdote. It will not be an easy race for Madrid, sincePSG or Chelsea have also shown strong interest, with the last two presenting, as reported by ESPN at the beginning of the week, an offer of 45 million euros. In Palmeiras they castled. 60 or nothing. We will see if after the visit to Valdebebas the dynamics of the negotiation change.
familiar ground
Madrid is comfortable in this type of negotiation, where you have to carry out field work to convince a young Brazilian that the Santiago Bernabéu is the best setting to find glory. Endrick, as it already happened as Vinicius or Rodrygo, could not officially cross the pond until he turned 18 , as stipulated by FIFA regulations.
