Real Madrid will not pursue Erling Haaland if they sign emerging Brazilian talent Endrick, according to reports.
As soon as the Norway striker landed at Manchester City, reports emerged that Madrid were spying a potential bid when a supposed release clause becomes active in 2024. The player’s agent has remained coy about the potential contract caveat but it now seems as though the La Liga champions may call off a pursuit.
Sixteen-year-old Endrick is being tracked by a handful of European clubs including Arsenal, Liverpool and Barcelona. The striker has scored three times in seven first-team games for Palmeiras and is thought to have a £51m release clause in his contract.
