Transfer: Real Madrid complete ‘biggest deal in Brazilian football’ for Endrick

Real Madrid have completed a deal to sign Endrick from Palmeiras.

The 16-year-old Brazilian forward will join Real in July 2024 when he turns 18.

The LaLiga giants have landed Endrick ahead of top clubs most notably Chelsea.

Palmeiras president, Leila Pereira, claims this is “the biggest negotiation in the history of Brazilian football”.

ESPN reports the teenager will join Madrid on an initial three-year contract, which has the option of a three-year extension.

The transfer fee is worth a total of €72million, including variables and taxes.

Real have had success investing in Brazil’s most promising young players, having agreed deals for Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo at a similar age, with both players now first-team regulars.
