Henrique Carmo is an emerging Brazilian football talent who has recently caught the eye of scouts and clubs, including Chelsea.

Chelsea appears to have set its sights on another potential wonderkid, this time targeting a promising Brazilian teenager. In recent years, the Blues have made several signings aimed at securing future talent, including players like Marc Guiu, Andrey Santos, Deivid Washington, Omari Kellyman, Cesare Casadei, and Renato Veiga.

However, with the influx of senior players, some young talents have found their futures uncertain, leading to the departures of players like Angelo Gabriel and Diego Moreira. Despite this, Chelsea remains committed to their strategy of bringing in the next generation of talent, whether to integrate them into the first team or eventually sell them for a profit. Both approaches are seen as beneficial for the club’s long-term vision.

Amid growing interest, São Paulo wonderkid Henrique Carmo has caught the attention of both Chelsea and Everton. Reports from UOL indicate that Everton and Paris Saint-Germain have also made inquiries regarding the Brazilian forward.

Several other clubs, including AS Monaco, Marseille, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, and AC Milan, have been linked to Carmo as well. Shakhtar Donetsk is said to have submitted an £8 million bid, which was reportedly rejected. A potential deal in January remains a possibility.
