Liverpool could be pushed completely out of the race for highly-rated Brazilian youngster Endrick with PSG continuing to push for the player’s signature.
Fabrizio Romano’s tweet update on the situation follows a reveal from the player’s father that the French outfit is the ‘only club’ to have opened negotiations.
Endrick deal. There’s still no agreement between Paris Saint-Germain and Palmeiras after opening bid revealed by player’s father few days ago. Nothing is agreed/done.

The Reds were thought to hold some interest in the teenager (as previously reported by Sky Sports), though there’s been little in the way of any developments on this front.

Given that strengthening the midfield department very much remains the priority, this is far from surprising.
Palmeiras recently valued Endrick at £35m (Sky Sports), though there’s an element of expectation that this could rise exponentially.
Though it would be a shame to miss out on such a talent, our current transfer model is focused on delivering players in and around the 20-24 age range who can deliver relatively instantly.
Put simply, however, the 16-year-old just isn’t what Liverpool need right now amid ongoing concerns around the middle of the park.
