Endrick: Criticisms of My Family and Girlfriend Felt Before My Debut, Now I Feel Wonderful After Making My Debut

On August 25th, local time, Endrick performed outstandingly in his debut for Real Madrid. In the match against Valladolid, after coming on as a substitute, he not only scored a goal at the Bernabéu but also became the youngest foreign player to score for Real Madrid in La Liga, responding with action to the recent pressures and criticisms.

In an interview with Real Madrid TV after the game, Endrick said, “We are all very happy. Today we celebrate the victory here with my family. The final score was 3-0. My family witnessed my efforts and challenges, they shared the criticisms with me, including those directed at my girlfriend. This moment is extraordinary for us, and now I am experiencing wonderful times.”

Endrick had already scored at the Bernabéu in a friendly match between Brazil and Spain back in March, which he felt very proud of: “Scoring here for the Brazilian national team was a wonderful experience, but scoring today for Real Madrid has fulfilled my dream. I am extremely grateful for everything and will continue to work hard, not just for the people of Brazil, but also for the fans in Spain.”

Despite being a new addition to the team, Endrick has a clear understanding of his abilities and what he can bring to the team: “Playing alongside these top players is significant for me; in the past, I could only see them in games. During my first conversation with Coach Ancelotti, I expressed my talent and willingness to train hard. I know I will make mistakes, but I will also achieve success. I look forward to growing together with teammates like Bellingham, Vinicius, and Rodrygo. I will give it my all and patiently wait for my opportunity.”
