Endrick is ‘ready to show the world his quality’ when he moves to Real Madrid next summer, according to former teammate Danilo.
The 17-year-old wonderkid is widely tipped to follow in the footsteps of Pele, Ronaldo and Neymar as Br azil’s next football superstar, with the world very much at his feet.
With 10 goals and 41 appearances to his name already, the teenager is already Palmeiras’ star player, even if the Br azilian side are preparing for his upcoming departure.
Despite the best efforts of Chelsea, Endrick is set to move to the Santiago Bernabeu in July 2024 when he turns 18 as a result of a stunning £51million deal that was struck in December 2022 when he was just 16 years of age.
It was even suggested that Real Madrid turned down the chance to sign Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund in order to guarantee Endrick a clear run at the striker position.
With Real Madrid building a hugely talented young side that consists of stars such as Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr, Edouardo Camavinga and Rodrygo, Endrick will feel right at home with Los Blancos.
"Endrick’s a great guy, he’s got a lovely family as well," Forest star Danilo told talkSPORT.
"I had the pleasure of sharing time with him and his parents at the start of his career in Palmeiras and he’s going to be a big success."
"He’s coming into European football at a very high level with Real Madrid, but there will be Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo and Eder Militao who will be ready to help him settle in."
Danilo added: "His qualities are his speed, his finishing, he’s both-footed, his strength, his desire and I think he’ll show the world his quality."
"I don’t think he’s got anything more to prove except to show that he can be a big success in Europe.
“I think he’ll be a big success for the Br azilian Seleção and in European football."
Danilo, meanwhile, is very much focusing on his career as a Premier League player.
Forest put in a good showing against Arsenal on the opening day of the season and are at home for the first time on Friday night when they welcome Sheffield United to the City Ground.
