NEWS FLASH: Real Madrid Signs A Brazilian Teenager
|Brazilian adolescent prodigy Endrick has been acquired by Real Madrid from Palmeiras.
The attacker, 16, who is regarded as one of Brazil’s top up-and-coming players, will sign with the European and Spanish champions in July 2024.
This is because Fifa regulations forbid the movement of players under the age of 18 to foreign teams.
The contract’s duration was not made public by Palmeiras or Real Madrid, but both parties confirmed that Endrick would be visiting his new club’s facilities in Spain the next week.
On the Palmeiras website, Endrick stated:
“I thank Palmeiras, the club that will always hold a special place in my heart, for providing me with everything I needed to become who I am today, for assisting me in realizing a number of my goals, and for respecting my wish and the desire of my family to realize another dream.
“I will continue to devote myself as I have always devoted myself to being able to provide Palmeiras even more on the pitch until I join Real Madrid.
