PSG have taken a step ahead of Real Madrid in the race to sign Brazilian youngster Endrick Felipe. The Parisians have made a formal proposal for the player in a bid to complete a transfer in a couple of months, according to Spanish Newspaper Sport as relayed by Fichajes.

The 19-year-old was blocked from leaving Palmeiras last January amid links to Real Madrid. 

According to Sport, PSG offered 20 million euros to Palmeiras Endrick Felipe. The Brazilian club rejected the offer from the French club. However, the Paris-based club representative would make a new offer that would be hard to resist.

In France, the goal is to sign Felipe from Palmeiras, now one of the best young talents on the South American continent. In the past, top European football clubs, including Real Madrid, Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea, were linked to the youngster.

What’s the current situation? Will PSG win the race?

Palmeiras offered him his first professional contract earlier this year to fend off European interest. However, his performance has continued to draw attention. PSG will continue with their efforts to bring the youngster to Europe ahead of other clubs like Real Madrid.

Although, it remains unclear what the French club might bring to the table in their second bid.
