165-goal Brazilian wonder kid finally opens up on Real Madrid transfer news

Brazilian football star, Endrick has revealed he looks up to Erling Haaland, amid reports he could be on the move next summer.

The 16-year-old has seen his reputation rise in recent months, due to his consistently impressive performances for Palmeiras, and is tipped to seal a transfer to one of Europe’s top clubs in the coming months, with Liverpool thought to be a major contender for his signature. 

Hailed as the next Neymar, Real Madrid are seen as favourites to sign the highly rated youngster.

Aside Real Madrid, Premier League giants Liverpool, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are also in the running to sign Endrick, who isn’t permitted to sign a professional deal with any of the aforementioned sides until he is 18 years.

With rumours linking Endrick with a move away from Palmeiras continuing to swirl, the teenager has revealed more about his future.

“There’s the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1,” Endrick told TV Gazeta, when asked about his favoured destination. “I play video games a lot, I make a career out of playing.

“I watch all the leagues, I play in all the leagues, practically. I see myself playing in any league.

He added: “My dream is to play in Europe, but what I want is to be playing. I’m focused on Palmeiras and I don’t care where I’ll be playing in the future.

“Currently, Haaland is a new guy that I look up to, who was almost from my generation. But, of course, there is also (Cristiano) Ronaldo.”

Endrick has scored 165 goals in 169 games for Palmeiras’ youth teams.
