A formula exists and has proven to be very successful – so why not follow it? This is probably what they were thinking in Madrid when they definitely decided to go for Palmeiras’ child prodigy Endrick (16). The Royal Club obviously agreed to all the conditions set by the representatives of the super-talented striker – if there were any at all – so in the last few days, the last phase of the big deal has begun. This is what some Spanish media write, and the Brazilian media confirm.##EDITORS_CHOICE##In translation: Real Madrid has, by all accounts, scored another big win in the market. After Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, who both proved to be a hit, another Brazilian prodigy arrives at the Santiago Bernabeu and is predicted to have a magnificent career.Endrick is only 16 years old, but he has already played for the first team of Palmeiras, became a champion with the Greens, and this season in the opening seven games of the Brazilian Serie A, he scored three and set up one goal. The first striker of Seleção at the World Cup – Richarlison, recently spoke highly of this young man:”I watched him play for both Brazil and Palmeiras. He reminds me a lot of Adriano. I think he will reach Europe in two years,” said the Tottenham striker and seemed to hit the spot.##NAJAVA_MECA_6870963##According to the same sources, the negotiations should be concluded during the winter transfer window, however, Endrick will go to Madrid only when he turns 18. So, in the summer of 2024.Real’s job was made easier by the fact that Paris Saint-Germain dropped out of the race for the 16-year-old Brazilian. Saints had the idea to take Endrick and one year younger Estevao, they offered as much as 93,000,000 euros for a luxury package, but Palmeiras’ answer was negative. The reason: the club believes that the 15-year-old Estevao will gain additional value in a few years.The Greens will receive 45,000,000 euros from Real, while 15,000,000 will come through easily reachable bonuses. In this way, the exit clause of 60,000,000 euros will be activated. Interestingly, both Rodrygo and Vinicius were also paid 45,000,000 each…And it was the two Brazilian national team players who played an important role in the whole story. Endrick has a good relationship with both of them, especially Vinny, and he believes that his adaptation to Europe will be easier with his compatriots, in a club that has proven to be a fertile ground for young Brazilians.- Eder Militão €50 million- Reinier Jesus: €30 million- Rodrygo: €45 million- Vinicius Junior: €45 millionMadrid is closing in on a deal for Endrick that will be worth a total of €72 million. pic.twitter.com/IQQ3GmGAzE— Brasil Football 🇧🇷 (@BrasilEdition) December 6, 2022 The Royal Club had serious competition in Chelsea as well, writes UOL Esporte. Thiago Silva seriously lobbied for the Blues, but he was unable to prevail. Barcelona were the first to drop out of the game due to its inability to compete financially with other competitors.Endrick should be expected in Valdebebas camp until New Year so that the people from the club will explain to him in detail what plan they have for him. Only after that will we move on to the administrative part – the signing of the contract and the drafting of the agreement regarding the one-and-a-half-year loan to Palmeiras.
