Paris Saint-Germain had their eyes on two wonder kids as part of the rebuild after the exits of Lionel Messi and Neymar Jr. The Ligue 1 side wanted to secure Palmeiras duo Endrick and Estevão Willian.
The capital club has long connected with Brazil and probably wanted these two to continue that affinity. However, Endrick decided to sign with Real Madrid, and Willian remains a Palmeiras player. Nonetheless, the teenager is generating a lot of interest from Europe.
Transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano reported on Sunday that PSG had a €93 million package bid rejected for both Estevão and Endrick.

Furthermore, he adds that Chelsea invited Endrick’s family to London to present their project, and Real Madrid’s Juni Calafat was critical to making it happen with the Spanish giants.
If the wonderkid agreed to join PSG, he’d have to wait until his 18th birthday to leave Brazil. Willian will be a hot commodity, so seeing if the French giants can beat the competition and continue improving the midfield will be interesting.
