Endrick’s move to Madrid was finalized on December 15, 2022, with the Spanish giants shelling out a hefty 72 million euros ($411 million). This sum includes a 60 million euro ($342 million) release clause and an additional 12 million euros ($68 million) in taxes.
The 18-year-old joins a star-studded attack line that boasts not only the newly acquired Mbappé but also fellow Brazilians Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo, reuniting with his compatriots from their recent Copa América campaign.
While the addition of Endrick adds youthful vigor and promise to Real Madrid’s frontline, integrating him into an already competitive squad will be a challenge. Balancing such high-profile talents requires strategic finesse, and it remains to be seen how Endrick will carve out his niche within this formidable ensemble.
