Since his debut in 2022, Endrick’s potential has caught the attention of people worldwide, and now he seems ready to make an impact at Santiago Bernabeu.

Real Madrid’s future star, Endrick, wrote his name in history by securing the Brasileirao championship with Palmeiras after a 1-1 draw against Cruzeiro, where the forward netted the crucial goal for his team.

The secret visit

In 2022, Endrick reportedly traveled to Madrid to visit winger Vinicius Junior and learn his way of working. He also learnt his training method, his recoveries and his diet with a clear intention to show Endrick the sacrifices he had to make to succeed at the highest level. At that time there were rumours of his move to Madrid so images were not published.
