Chelsea lead Real Madrid, Arsenal and PSG in transfer race for wonderkid branded 'next Neymar'

Chelsea are said to be a step closer towards signing Brazilian wonderkid Endrick. The 16-year-old striker has been heavily linked with a move to many of Europe's top-flight sides lately as he continues to impress for boyhood club Palmeiras.

Endrick has featured five times for the Brazilian side this season, directly contributing towards fours goals. His impressive displays have further strengthened the interest in his services, earning comparisons to Paris Saint-Germain stars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar.

The Brazil youth international broke a 106-year Palmeiras record last month after coming on as a substitute at half-time in the Serie A clash against Athletico Paranaense and scoring to become the club's youngest goal scorer. With a handful of top clubs queuing up for his signature, Chelsea look to have earned themselves an advantage.
