Chelsea are in the race to sign Brazilian wonderkid Endrick, and we have been hearing a lot on this in recent weeks and months.
It’s a saga that is expected to go on and on, with Chelsea still hovering there and attempting to sign him.
Todd Boehly hoping his relationship with West Ham will help them get ahead to sign Declan Rice!
However, it looks like they are not winning this race as of now, according to multiple reports over night. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also since confirmed that these reports are correct, and it is Real Madrid who are leading the race to sign Endrick right now.
As you can see from his tweet though, he also confirms Chelsea are still there for him.
Real Madrid are now leading the race to sign Endrick, pushing as reported in the last few days. Official negotiations are ongoing with Palmeiras on €60m fee, including add-ons. 🚨⚪️ #RealMadrid

But it doesn’t look good if Real Madrid are pushing hard. Players don’t often ignore those intentions when the Spanish giants come calling, and Chelsea will face a real battle now if they want any chance of signing the rising star.
