Chelsea are interested in investing heavily in Endrick, with the revitalised 19-year-old wonderkid seen as an ideal addition to their young system.
According to Fichajes, Chelsea are pondering making an €80 million move for Endrick in the near future. The Blues are eager to lure the young Brazilian striker following his revitalised performances away on loan to Lyon, as Real Madrid could be tested with an offer of that magnitude.
Real Madrid invested heavily in signing Endrick from Palmeiras at a time when the young forward was barely tested at the highest level. While the signing has not paid off yet, the Spanish club holds big expectations for the future, which is the reason why they sent him on loan to Lyon for the remainder of the season so he gets regular minutes under his belt.
Endrick has been sensational for Lyon so far, scoring four goals in three games and providing an assist in that period. He dazzled at the weekend by scoring a hattrick against Metz in Ligue 1, which has opened chatter about his long-term future at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Chelsea are now interested in investing heavily in the revitalised 19-year-old wonderkid, as part of their long-term planning and squad building. The Blues are pondering an €80 million bid to test the Spanish giants and their resolve on the young Brazilian striker.
Chelsea were linked with Julian Alvarez earlier, but the report states there are many difficulties in signing the Argentine. Hence, the club ar ready to pivot and invest in the revitalised 19-year-old wonderkid to bring him and reunite with Brazilian teammate Estevao at Stamford Bridge.
Will Real Madrid sell Endrick?
The €80 million sum might be a tempting prospect for Real Madrid to at least consider the idea of selling Endrick. As for the 19-year-old, he might be dreaming of making it big at the Bernabeu, while the Spanish giants might also look at the possibility of keeping him on for a few more years. Hence, Real Madrid are unlikely to part company with Endrick at the present moment, and could take their chances with the forward.
As for Chelsea, they have a lot of young strikers on their list, with Stade Rennais teenager Mohamed Kader Meite their latest target, as per reports. However, the claim that they are willing to invest heavily in Endrick shows how keen they are about the Brazilian, although it will be extremely difficult to convince Real Madrid to part ways.
