UEFA Champions League
Real Madrid is closely following Eduardo Conceição, the new gem of Palmeiras and Brazilian football, for when he comes of age in 2028. The Real Madrid transfer market continues to focus on adding young talents for the future.
The board led by Florentino Pérez has included the Brazilian U-18 international in their agenda, facing a release clause set at 100 million euros and a starting price set by the São Paulo club at 50 million euros.
Competition for Eduardo Conceição in Europe
The 16-year-old player is under contract with Palmeiras until January 2029, with 2 call-ups for Brazil's U-18 national team. In September 2026, Verdao rejected a formal offer between 15 and 20 million euros, while Chelsea leads direct talks to gain an edge before his move to Europe.
Alongside Real Madrid's project and Chelsea's pressure, the City Group, Arsenal, Manchester United, FC Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and PSG are gathering performance reports on the forward.

Palmeiras' Economic Conditions and Florentino Pérez's Strategy
The Real Madrid board is analyzing the feasibility of the operation considering that international regulations prevent the attacker's arrival in Europe until he turns 18 years old. The Brazilian club aims to exploit the bidding among European giants to get closer to the 50 million euros demanded in July 2026.
The Whites' executives rely on the established institutional relationship with Palmeiras' board during the negotiations for Endrick to approach the talks.
Real Madrid's Planning in the South American Market
Real Madrid's sports management plans to structure a transfer offer guaranteed with performance-related variables to avoid paying the full 100 million euros clause. The budget allocation would be deferred until the player's definitive incorporation in 2028.
The Chamartín management believes that the winger's arrival would ensure generational renewal in the team's offensive flanks. Real Madrid's envoys will intensify contacts with Eduardo Conceição's representatives during the last quarter of 2026.
Real Madrid is monitoring Chelsea's moves to prepare a significant offer to convince Palmeiras and persuade the player to join their team.
