Chelsea set sights on signing Endrick. Estevão played a role in this decision...

Chelsea are ready to give the 19-year-old Brazilian a real shot.

Details: According to renowned journalist Graeme Bailey, London side Chelsea are preparing a transfer bid for Real Madrid’s Brazilian forward Endrick, who is reportedly not part of Xabi Alonso’s plans.

Reports suggest the likelihood of this move is high, as Chelsea currently have Endrick’s close friend Willian Estevão on their roster—a player with whom he previously teamed up at Palmeiras.

It was Estevão who recommended that the Blues’ management pay close attention to Endrick, who has been suffering from a severe lack of playing time at Real Madrid.

Besides Chelsea, French club Lyon are also in the race for Endrick, but all signs point to the Brazilian preferring a reunion with his former teammate at Stamford Bridge.

This season, Endrick has made just one appearance and has yet to register a goal or assist.

His current contract with Real Madrid runs until 2030, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at 35 million euros.
