“I know I’m in a new generation, I’ve been through a lot. I have the dream of becoming an idol for all children,” Endrick said. “I know that is difficult because there are people who don’t like me, but I want to be a new idol for them. I want them to look at me and think that if I managed to be here, they can too.”
Endrick was an integral part of the Palmeiras team that secured the prestigious 2023 São Paulo championship title, showcasing his exceptional talent and contribution throughout the season.

Each time he was asked, it became clear how much interest there was in his future and the impact he could have at Real Madrid. This constant inquiry highlighted his rising profile and underscored the excitement surrounding his transition to European football as he prepared for this significant step in his career.

Endrick expressed his deep gratitude to Palmeiras, the club that played a pivotal role in shaping his career. Here, he honed his skills in the youth divisions, receiving the guidance and training necessary to develop into the player he is today.
