CHELSEA have received a boost in the race for Palmeiras wonderkid Endrick with the Brazilian club rejecting two offers from Paris Saint-Germain, a report says.
The 16-year-old burst onto the scene this season and helped Palmeiras win Brazil’s Serie A, scoring three goals and providing one assist in seven appearances.
Such form at a young age has seen Endrick dubbed the “next Neymar” and with that label comes a drove of transfer interest from top clubs.
According to ESPN, PSG have had two offers rejected for the forward.
The Parisians submitted an offer worth £39.5million but it will take £52.7m – the player’s release clause – to seal a deal.
