FC Barcelona's interest in Endrick is confirmed. 'Sport' claims that the club are working on signing him and, in fact, have already taken steps to try to bring in the 16-year-old striker from Palemiras. The club have reportedly met with the player's agents in Barcelona to discuss his possible future at the club.
Although Endrick has not made his debut in the Brazilian league with Palmeiras, the striker is on the agendas of Europe's big clubs. Madrid and Barcelona were left with the desire to see him in action against Santos, as there was speculation about his possible debut in the top flight in this important match that ended with a 1-0 win for his team.
Barcelona's interest in Endrick is clear. The club no longer have any doubts that he can fit into the team and, according to 'Sport', they have taken a step closer to signing the player.
According to the newspaper, Barça have recently met with Endrick's agents. Several of the 16-year-old's agents have reportedly travelled to Barcelona to discuss the Barça project and how Endrick would fit in.
Sport' claims that Endrick has caught everyone's eye. Barcelona scouts have given him the go-ahead and the board are considering signing him. The first talks have already begun.
Barça's plan for the striker is to negotiate directly with Palmeiras next summer, with the 2022-23 season already finalised. The Catalan giants are in no hurry, as Endrick would not arrive at Camp Nou until 2024, when he reaches the age of majority.
Barcelona are aware of the international interest in Endrick. 'Sport' claims that PSG are also in the race, although the main competitor for the 'Cules' will be eternal rivals Real Madrid, who have also been targeting the talented player for some time.
