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.

he's just 15 and that's a good decision, not even enough experience in Brazil not to talk of Europe

Move sooner than later Man. Ask Ganso
Better he moves to Europe at 20 at least he should have some Brazilian League and Copa libatadores experience before he moves to the top European Leagues.

Wise choice, getting transfer move and getting money at young can ridiculed and distract him, he choose football and if he works for it he is young and can one day make a big move.

Funny enough, he is talented but there will be even better youngster in a few years. Like no one knew about Pedri and then he just came out of no where and steal the show.

So he should. He needs games to develop and will do that in Brazil, but I doubt he will initially get many games if he goes to Europe now
