Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has hailed Brazilian wonderkid Endrick as a “phenomenon” - with a transfer battle expected to break out over his signature.
The 16-year-old has been making waves in his home country with Palmeiras and reportedly has a number of Europe’s biggest clubs chasing his services. Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona have previously been credited with an interest in Endrick. Elsewhere, clubs in the Premier League also appear to be taking notice of the youngster’s performances. Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal are among the sides believed to be keeping tabs on the teenager.
A move will not be possible in the immediate future, with Endrick not eligible to leave Brazil until at least 2024. But that has not stopped him from garnering plenty of admirers within the game - Arsenal striker Jesus among those.
