Real Madrid signing Endrick: Vinicius Jr will be best in the world; I study Benzema's game

Palmeiras striker Endrick is backing Real Madrid to win the Champions League this season.

Endrick has signed for Real Madrid and will move to Spain when he turns 18 in 2025.

He told Ok Diario: “I don't miss a single game. Always watching Vini 'destroy' opponents. Against Villarreal, once again Vinicius made the difference, unfortunately we lost."

Regarding Vinicius, the Palmeiras teen says: “It is very good to see Vinicius play. He is always happy, playing with a smile on his face. Even when they provoke him... The more they beat him, the more he gives it back, they (those who criticise him) are stupid, in my opinion, because he plays even more that way.

«I see Rodrygo, Militao, the Brazilians… Another player that I am paying more attention to is (Karim) Benzema, I see what he does in the area and throughout the game. It is very good to know that I will play alongside those footballers I play with in FIFA."

Finally, Endrick is confident that Real Madrid will win the Champions League this season: "I think that we, Real Madrid, will be Champions League champions and that Vini will be the best in the world."
