Madrid agreed a deal to sign the Brazilian from Palmeiras in December 2022, but he could not formally join the club until his 18th birthday, which he celebrated on 21 July.

Endrick has penned a six-year contract with Los Blancos after signing for an initial fee of €35 million ($58 million), although that could rise by a further €25 million ($41.4 million) in add-ons.

The youngster, who will wear the number 16 shirt, was tearful at his stadium presentation, telling the fans he had realised a long dream.

"This is crazy," Endrick said. "I am so happy since I was a kid, I have always been a Madrid fan, and now I am going to play for Madrid.

"I am here, I am going to play, I am so happy. My family are as well. I don't have words to describe what I am feeling. I always wanted to be here. I wanted to play for Madrid. It was a dream. Today it is a reality."

Endrick became the youngest player to feature for Palmeiras, making his debut at the age of 16 in October 2022, and going on to make 82 appearances, scoring 21 goals.

Since making his debut for Brazil last year, he has netted three times in 10 appearances for his national side and was part of its Copa America squad.

Endrick will be part of Madrid's pre-season tour in the United States later this month when it will play three games against Serie A's AC Milan, LaLiga rival Barcelona and Premier League hopeful Chelsea.
