Manchester City 'keeping tabs on Brazilian starlet'

Manchester City are keeping a close eye on 15-year-old Palmeiras wonderkid Endrick, according to a report.

The Brazilian winger, born in 2006, recently scored a brilliant solo goal on his debut for Palmeiras Under-20s in a 3-0 win at the Copa Sao Paulo de Futebol Junior.

At such a young age, Endrick is understood to have already caught the eye of several top clubs across Europe, including Man City.

According to Brazilian news outlet R7, the Citizens are 'excited' by the youngster's talent and have reached out to his representatives ahead of a proposed move to the Etihad Stadium.

The report adds that Manchester United, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have also 'compiled a report' on Endrick and will be closely monitoring his developments in Brazil.

In addition, Pep Guardiola's side may have a slight advantage in their pursuit of the teenager, after positive talks between both clubs back in August 2016 resulted in Gabriel Jesus making the £27m switch to Manchester five months later.
