England lost 1-0 to Brazil in a friendly game at Wembley on Saturday, with Real Madrid youngster the hero of the day for Brazil.
Real Madrid youngster, Endrick, came off the bench to score the game’s only goal in the 80th minute.
17-year-old Endrick broke a Wembley record with his goal contribution.
Endrick became the youngest ever male scorer in a senior professional game at Wembley Stadium, following his goal against England.
At the age of 17 years and 246 days, Endrick has now become the youngest scorer at Wembley, as he scored his first goal for Brazil in the process and ending England’s 21-game unbeaten streak at their national stadium.
Endrick will join Real Madrid in July, and the teenager comes highly rated.
Chelsea were the favourites to sign Endrick, but the Blues missed out on the deal due to cold feet. Real Madrid will go on to splash the cash on Endrick.
For Real Madrid, they don’t want to miss out on another top Brazilian talent as they did with Neymar. Chelsea have been told they have also learnt a valuable lesson from this.
“I think Real decided that they were never going to miss another talent like Vini or Endrick after Neymar moved to Barcelona,” Frederico Pena told the Daily Telegraph.
“Maybe there is a lesson for Chelsea because they were in front at the start.
“The boy’s parents visited Cobham and were impressed, but Chelsea were worried about the fee and then when Real came in and were prepared to pay what Palmeiras wanted, it became almost impossible for them.”
