Endrick talked about his decision to join Real Madrid after taking part in the annual charity game that is organized by Brazilian legend Zico.
When he turns 18 in 2024, the Brazilian prodigy will move from Palmeiras to Los Blancos. Among the ex-players present were legends Savio, Djalminha, and Dejan Petkovic. Endrick scored three goals in front of more than 60,000 spectators.
How do you feel after the announcement of your signing with Real Madrid? I am very happy, I am very grateful to God but I have my feet on the ground. I haven't won anything yet. I thank God a lot for this present. The future belongs only to God. In 2024, when I go to Real Madrid, I hope to have a good time. At the moment I am at Palmeiras, but I will be supporting them from afar. May Vinicius, who is my friend, have a great season, Eder, Rodrygo... and may Real Madrid win more Champions Leagues, Leagues and Super Cups.
Why did you choose Real Madrid? You had other offers from other teams... Real Madrid are a very big team. Vini had sent me messages and gave me more hope. Cristiano also, who is my idol, played for Real Madrid. That's why I chose Real Madrid and I think it's the right choice. God has always been with me and he has told me that it is the best way.
Have you had a chance to speak with Carlo Ancelotti or any of the other team members? Yes, I had conversations with Ancelotti, Rodrygo, Eder, and the Brazilians. I am very appreciative of everything that has happened in my life, and I pray that many more good things will come. However, you must remain humble and persevere.
You enjoyed yourself today and scored several goals... I did not play with much seriousness, but I don't like losing. The game was enjoyable, and I believe people liked it. I am currently returning to Sao Paulo to continue my training, which is what I must do to stay in shape for the upcoming season.
