In soccer, time and time again, new young talents pop onto the scene and take the world by storm. Two South American players, Endrick from Brazil and Kendry Paez from Ecuador have both accomplished the same thing in recent times. Both are just in their teenage years and have already impressed the soccer fraternity with their talents.

The budding young talents are coming to Europe to shine!

While both Endrick and Kendry Paez have secured contracts with their respective European clubs, it will be some time before fans can witness their European debut. At 16, Endrick struck a deal worth $64 million with Real Madrid, but the club will have to wait until he turns 18 before finalizing the transfer. The forward’s eighteenth birthday falls in July next year, at which point Real Madrid will sign him officially.

Similarly, Kendry Paez faces a comparable scenario. Last summer, Chelsea reached an agreement to acquire Paez for approximately $22 million; however, they are required to wait until he turns 18. Consequently, the official move will happen later in the summer of 2025.

Nonetheless, reports suggest that this talented midfielder will touch down in London next week and commence early training with his new team. With all this concluded, the future looks bright for both these teenagers.
