Chelsea ready to sign Endrick as move to reunite star with cult hero appeals to Real Madrid man

Chelsea are reportedly ready to sign Real Madrid man Endrick, who’d love the chance to reunite with a former team-mate starring at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues added a raft of forward talent to their squad in the summer. They signed Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Jamie Gittens, Estevao, Alejandro Garnacho and Facundo Buonanotte.

But they have previously been linked with Real Madrid youngster Endrick, and reports now state they are back in the mix.

Indeed, the Chelsea Chronicle states the Blues still admire the 19-year-old, who’s played just 11 minutes this season, and they are ready to take a chance on him, feeling he’ll add something to the squad.

Insider Graeme Bailey said: “I have been hearing Chelsea have been following Endrick’s situation for weeks and are ready to offer him the chance to rebuild his career in West London.

“I think Chelsea have room in their star-studded squad for another striker in January and I am now told that they could be the ideal place for Endrick to kick-start his career.

“Real for their part would take a loan with an option, whilst some at Real think he could still have a future – some believe the time is right to move him on, so let’s see what January brings but I am told Endrick could very well arrive at Stamford Bridge this January.”
