The Brazilian is expected to make his grand Real Madrid debut at the Santiago Bernabéu on July 27.
Prodigy Endrick has great expectations at Real Madrid.
Marca said Real Madridâs leadership expected Endrickâs presentation to go down in the clubâs history, as ticket demand far exceeded expectations.
Real Madridâs board of directors initially did not expect Endrickâs debut to cause a stir like Mbappe or Ronaldo, because the player is far less famous than the two names mentioned above.
However, after demand for tickets to Endrickâs unveiling skyrocketed, Real Madrid believe the young Brazilian star can have a spectacular debut, second only to Kylian Mbappe and Cristiano Ronaldo .
Earlier, more than 75,000 Real Madrid fans attended Kylian Mbappeâs unveiling, the second highest number in the teamâs history.
The record for the number of people attending the unveiling of a star in Realâs history belongs to Cristiano Ronaldo, when nearly 90,000 âLos Blancosâ were present at the BernabĂ©u to witness the Portuguese superstar in 2009.
Endrick officially turned 18 on July 21. This is an important milestone for Real Madrid and the Brazilian striker, as the player is qualified to wear the âLos Blancosâ shirt.
According to FIFA regulations, Endrick has the right to sign a contract with Real Madrid even though he is underage, but the player can only officially play for the reigning European champions when he turns 18.
Real Madrid successfully recruited Endrick in December 2022, when the player was only 16 years old. This âreaping young riceâ tactic was applied by Real with Vinicius Junior and brought success.
