Chelsea, Man Utd suffer transfer blow as Real Madrid reach agreement with target

English Premier League sides, Chelsea and Manchester United have suffered a transfer blow in their bid to sign Brazilian youngster, Endrick.

This comes as a report claims Endrick has agreed to a transfer move to join Spanish club Real Madrid over a move to the EPL.

The Brazil forward had been linked with a move to Chelsea, Man United, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City, Barcelona, among other European clubs in the past.

Endrick currently plays for Brazilian club Palmeiras and can only leave the club in 2024, when he would have turned 18.

Earlier this week, Chelsea were earlier said to be leading the race to sign the 16-year-old forward.

But now, according to Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte, Real Madrid have a verbal agreement in place with Endrick over a contract and are only waiting for him to sign it.

Chelsea, will, however, continue to monitor the situation pending the time Endrick put pen to paper.
