Liverpool In Danger Of Missing Out On Brazilian Wonderkid As Rival Tables 69M Bid

Paris Saint-Germain have made a formal offer worth €50m (£43m), plus €30m (£26m) in add-ons, for Palmeiras forward Endrick, according to reports in the Brazilian media.

Most of the Premier League’s ‘Big Six’, including Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal have been linked with the 16-year-old but it appears PSG has stolen a march on their rivals.

Even so, it is believed that Palmeiras will take their time considering the Ligue One side’s offer, as well as any other proposals. Although the bid is higher than Endrick’s €60m (£52m) release clause, getting the full amount upfront is thought to be preferable.

With that being the case, Liverpool still have a shot of securing the teenager’s signature, although it has been suggested that PSG, Real Madrid and Chelsea are the three frontrunners for the striker’s signature at the moment.

Whether that will change over the coming weeks, we shall see. Endrick can only move to Europe when he turns 18 so Palmeiras effectively have eighteen months to make a final decision on the player’s future.
