Even though it’s clear there are many European clubs trying to guarantee the signing of Palmeiras wonderkid Endrick as early as possible, it seems Chelsea continue to stand in a very good position in the race.
The latest update from journalist Jorge Nicola claims that Paris Saint Germain have made the most recent bid. They offered €45m, with bonuses included, and the Brazilian club turned it down, saying they’d only accept €60m. The Ligue 1 side raised their bid, but still didn’t get to those requested numbers, and were rejected again.
PSG director Luis Campos is now set to have a conversation with his bosses about a potential €60m deal. They’re said to be in a hurry because of the competition from Chelsea and Real Madrid. And that’s where very interesting information regarding the Blues’ chase comes up, as Nicola claims to have a ‘feeling’ about this pursuit.
This upcoming opening offer from Chelsea has indeed been reported for a while now. Even though it hasn’t been made yet, there are many signs that the Blues are serious in the race, as both the Brazilian and the English media continue to report that the club have been in touch with the youngster’s family.
