ENDRICK WAS ONE STEP AWAY FROM JOINING CHELSEA ONE YEAR AGO, HIS FATHER REVEALS. (PHOTO).

“However, everything was twisted at the last moment: I can’t say 100% because I hadn’t signed yet, but the agreement was closed. I had already thought that I would live in London with all that cold weather!”.

“But then, at night, my son’s representative called and said that the owner of Chelsea withdrew from the deal because the price they would have to pay for Endrick would inflate the market. It was €60m in total for a 16-year-old boy who would arrive in the country almost two years later”.
