The Endrick era is rapidly approaching.
The Endrick Era Is Drawing Near
Even making the team at school or the leisure center is a feat for the typical adolescent. Endrick, a Brazilian sensation, had already committed to Palmeiras of São Paulo at the age of sixteen. He has been a fixture in the Campeonato Brasileiro, having played in 100 games over the last two seasons, 11 of which have been for the national team. He’s signed a deal with Real Madrid, just like any other rising star, but he’s the youngest player to do so in history.
Anyone joining a team of Galácticos, such as the current Los Blancos squad, which also has Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior, and the recently acquired Kylian Mbappé, would naturally wind up on the bench. But Endrick has already left his mark, surpassing club great Raúl as the youngest player to score a laser beyond the box in the UEFA Champions League versus Stuttgart.
Motivated by fellow Madrileños and Portuguese-speaking icons, Ronaldo Nazário and Cristiano Ronaldo, Endrick is aware of the demands on him to perform well at what is perhaps the biggest club in the world. Endrick tells Hypebeast, “I’m at the best club in the world, with the best players.” “The most important thing is that we are here to help Madrid win more titles, God willing.”
Endrick recently joined another family as he was appointed as one of EA SPORTS’ new ambassadors, joining forces with racing racer Bianca Bustamente, Colorado Buffalo Travis Hunter, and Angel FC’s Alyssa Thompson. GEN / EA SPORTS is a new athlete engagement program that connects into the gaming giant’s network of athletes and fans, defining the next generation of sports fandom. It is centered around the core pillars of the gaming giant, which are authenticity, leadership, competition, self-expression, and community.
Endrick received a unique varsity jacket to mark the occasion, which was embroidered with patches detailing his incredible rise. The patches included his senior debut age, a tribute to the Várzea underground football collective that his father played in, and special moments and mantras that have paralleled Endrick’s ascent. The football player was interviewed by Hypebeast on his rise to prominence on the global scene, his passion for video games, and the demands he faces from Real Madrid and Brazil.
