There are already very high expectations around the kid, despite the fact that Endrick has not yet arrived at Real Madrid, which he will do during the summer of next year. It was inevitable that this would take place. It has been said that the wonderkid from Palmeiras is the most talented player in Brazilian football since Neymar, and he has been compared to Ronaldo Nazario.
In order to acquire him from Palmeiras in the summer of 2024, Real Madrid reached an agreement with Palmeiras over a transfer deal that is estimated to be approximately sixty million euros. In addition, it is already seeming to be something of a stroke of genius.
Endrick led Palmeiras to victory in the Brazilian Serie A while scoring 11 goals in the league during the previous season. Only Ronaldo Nazario was able to do more in a single season while playing for the under-18 team.
As a result, Real Madrid supporters anticipate that Endrick will be exceptional. Cristiano Ronaldo is the person he considers to be his greatest inspiration. This is what the Brazilian wonderkid had to say to A Bola, as published by Goal:
The guy who shattered all records by being an excellent and committed player is my greatest inspiration. He is my ultimate hero. In addition to being a person who demonstrates humility, he is more than just an athlete; he is a person who everyone ought to look up to as an example. This is because, regardless of the circumstances, he strives to be the greatest, he strives to win championships, and he strives to accomplish milestones. Everyone who is a player and wants to get farther in their profession should look to him as a reference.
Endrick cites the legendary Real Madrid player as his most favorite figure.
It might be said that Ronaldo is the finest player in the history of Real Madrid. During his tenure at Santiago Bernabeu, he not only holds the record for the most goals scored by the club, but he also won four Ballon d’Ors, was a key contributor to four teams that won the Champions League, and was the club’s all-time leader in goals scored.
In the event that Endrick is able to accomplish even half of that, he will be remembered as one of the most accomplished players in the history of the game. It goes without saying that it is essential to avoid putting pressure on him to perform right from the beginning.
While Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo were given time to acclimate to their new environments, Endrick has to be given the same amount of time. The wonderkid for Palmeiras has all of the ingredients necessary to become one of the top players in the game. At this point, everything revolves on his growth.
As a matter of good fortune, Real Madrid has a remarkable track record in recent years when it comes to transforming Brazilian wonderkids into superstars on the first squad. It is reasonable to expect that Endrick will go in the same direction.
