Man United and Liverpool target Endrick wants to stay at Palmeiras

Palmeiras teenager Endrick has reportedly stated that he intends to stay at the club for the foreseeable future, despite attracting interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs.

The Brazilian forward does not turn 16 until July, but he is already being tipped for stardom, and he has been compared to two-time World Cup winner Ronaldo.

He has caught the eye of both Manchester clubs and Liverpool who are believed to be keen on signing the hot prospect.

However, Endrick has claimed that he remains committed to Palmeiras, and does not want to leave them any time soon. 

'I have to focus on Palmeiras, where I want to become an idol,' he said, according to reports from TNT Sports Brazil, via Mundo Deportivo.  

'I’m going to stay at Palmeiras for a long time; I think I can bring a lot of joy to the fans here.'

Manchester City and Liverpool already have Brazilian strikers on their books in the shape of Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino, respectively.

Meanwhile, Manchester United have a fellow Portuguese-speaking player leading their line in Cristiano Ronaldo, who could pass on his words of wisdom to the youngster.

Endrick appears to be content with where he is, though, and looks set to stay in his homeland for now.
