Liverpool have been named as one of the numerous clubs that ‘want to sign’ Palmeiras wonderkid Endrick.
The 15-year-old is being linked with moves to the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain as well as Premier League rivals Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City.
However, it’s believed that the Reds are also firmly in contention as the forward – who is regarded as a generational talent – looks to secure a pre-contract agreement with a European goliath.
That’s according to a report from Sky Sports, as cited by Anfield Edition on Twitter.
Liverpool will compete with a number of Premier League rivals to try and sign wonderkid Palmeiras forward Endrick when he turns 16 in July.

The report claims that the teenager has ‘been watched by scouts from all the top European clubs’ whilst competing in the Copinha in Sao Paulo – a tournament in which the starlet scored six in seven games and won the best player award.

Described as ‘absurd’ and ‘very impressive’ by Bruno Carvalho and compared to Rolando and Romario previously, Endrick is well and truly making waves in South America.
Already a first-team debutant for Palmeiras, the versatile forward looks to have a supremely bright future at the very pinnacle of the game.
Keen to establish the next crop of talent within the Liverpool ranks, Jurgen Klopp will hope that Samba stars such as Fabinho, Roberto Firmino and Alisson can hold sway in attracting Endrick to Merseyside.
