Palmeiras whizkid Endrick spotted in Madrid

Palmeiras whizkid Endrick has been seen in Madrid this week.

Marca says the young attacker and his family were spotted enjoying Madrid's restaurants and shopping opportunities after arriving on Wednesday and will remain in the city until Sunday.

Endrick took the recent Copinha - a Sao Paulo youth tournament - by storm, catching the eye of national and international media with some impressive performances and goals.

After leaving Madrid, Endrick will be Paris-bound where the family will enjoy Disneyland and then take in the Champions League clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid on Tuesday.

There is no plan for Endrick to visit the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu or Valdebebas during his time in Madrid, although the club have shown an interest in signing him. Real Madrid must be careful, of course, though, as he is still only 15 years old.

The Palmeiras starlet will turn 16 in July and only then will clubs officially be able to compete for his signature, however, as he will not be able to join any European club until he is 18.
