Endrick, the promising young player set to join Real Madrid, has honored Manchester United icon Sir Bobby Charlton after scoring his debut international goal against England on Saturday night. The 17-year-old, who plays for Palmeiras in South America, is set to join the La Liga powerhouse in the upcoming summer transfer window. Brazil’s newest standout player made a big impact by scoring the winning goal for his national team during his third international appearance. Endrick had a chance to score another goal but was stopped by a great save from Jordan Pickford. Following the game, the visibly moved teenager spoke to the Brazilian media about the significance of the moment to him and paid a respectful tribute to Charlton, who passed away in October the previous year. The article suggests that Mainoo is expected to become one of the top players in England. The article discusses how Charlton wore a City shirt for a day. In the statement to Metro, the forward mentioned that Bobby Charlton, who is considered an idol at the stadium, played there and scored on the same day Ronaldo made his debut. These memories hold great significance for me. “I couldn’t focus on the game anymore because I was consumed by thoughts of the goal, it even pained me a bit.” My family, girlfriend, and managers are all present, creating a special memory. I don’t cry often, but I am containing my emotions because it’s a special moment and I am extremely pleased.
