Endrick Felipe Moreira de Sousa is undoubtedly one of the greatest gems in world football. Not for nothing, Real Madrid invested a fortune to sign the young talent from Palmeiras, who will sign his contract with Real Madrid in the coming weeks and thus begin his adventure in European elite football.

Currently, at just 17 years old, Endrick has a market value of around 60 million euros. This high valuation has gone hand in hand with equally impressive performances at Palmeiras. However, he is still not at the level of other players who already shine on the big stages of Europe. Time will tell.

Spain, Brazil, and France, cradles of future stars

According to data from the market value specialist website, Transfermarkt, the three most valuable U-18 players in the world are the FC Barcelona and Spanish national team star, Lamine Yamal; the future star of Real Madrid and Brazil, Endrick Felipe; and lastly, the promising midfielder from PSG and France, Warren Zaïre-Emery.

Lamine Yamal (90M euros)

Lamine Yamal, a 16-year-old attacker (who will turn 17 in July), has already shown his brilliance at FC Barcelona and now also in the EURO, where he has broken various precocity records. According to the latest update from the mentioned source, Lamine Yamal’s current market value is 90 million euros, making him one of the most valuable players on the planet even before finishing high school.

Endrick (60M euros)

Endrick needs no introduction. Just days away from reaching adulthood, the Brazilian pearl of the Seleção and Real Madrid is set to start his journey on the old continent with the most successful team of recent years. Also competing in his first Copa América with Brazil, Endrick’s value is expected to continue rising sharply.

Warren Zaïre-Emery (60M euros)

Finally, the player who ties with Endrick for second place is the French midfielder from PSG, Warren Zaïre-Emery. This year, the promising defensive midfielder earned the trust of his coach and played a total of 43 matches with the Parisian squad.

Despite being called up for the EURO, his role was almost testimonial due to the high quality of the midfield of the current world runner-up.
