PSG overtake Chelsea in 'next Cristiano Ronaldo' transfer race amid £69m bid for wonderkid

Paris Saint-Germain look to have leapfrogged Chelsea in the race to sign Palmeiras wonderkid Endrick. The 16-year-old has been heavily linked with a number of Europe's top sides lately as he continues to exceed expectations.

The striker has featured seven times for Palmeiras this season, directly contributing towards four goals. Last month, he broke a 106-year record to become the club's youngest-ever goal scorer after finding the net in a Serie A clash against Athletico Paranaense.

Endrick's impressive performances have seen him already be compared to Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo. PSG, Real Madrid and Chelsea are believed to be leading the race to acquire the teenage sensation's signature, although the French giants may have just edged ahead.
