The father of Palmeiras teenager Endrick has denied that he is planning to visit Madrid before the end of the month to discuss a possible switch to Real Madrid.
The 16-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best youngsters in world football, with a host of clubs said to be determined to sign him.
Real Madrid, alongside Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, are believed to be at the head of the queue for the Brazilian, with Palmeiras bracing themselves for his exit.
Endrick's father, Douglas Ramos, was recently quoted as saying that he and representatives of the forward would travel to Spain before the end of November.
"We'll travel to Madrid at the end of this month", he allegedly told UOL Esporte. "After that conversation, Real Madrid will await a response from us to see if they should come and make a bid to Palmeiras."

However, Douglas Ramos has insisted that he 'did not give any interview' and denied that there are any planned trips to discuss his son's future at this moment in time.
"I didn't give any interview, and I never spoke about any travel to Madrid in the next weeks. There's no travel scheduled as things stand", Endrick's father told Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Endrick will not turn 17 until next July, but he has already made seven appearances for Palmeiras, scoring three times and contributing one assist.
A recent report claims that PSG have already had a £40m bid for his services turned down, while Chelsea are thought to have hosted the teenager's family at their training ground.

Manchester United have also been credited with an interest in the youngster, although Real Madrid, Chelsea and PSG are believed to be the firm favourites for his signature.
Endrick has also played four times for Brazil Under-16s, finding the back of the net on five occasions.
"There's the Premier League, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 ... I play video games a lot, I make a career out of playing," Endrick recently told TV Gazeta. "I watch all the leagues, I play in all the leagues, practically. I see myself playing in any league.
"My dream is to play in Europe, but what I want is to be playing. I'm focused on Palmeiras and I don't care where I'll be playing in the future ... currently, [Erling Braut] Haaland is a new guy that I look up to, who was almost from my generation. But, of course, there is also [Cristiano] Ronaldo."
Endrick's current deal with Palmeiras is due to run until June 2025.
