Real Madrid will be reinforced by another Brazilian striker when Endrick Felipe complete his move to the club next month.
The 17-year-old will make the switch to Madrid at the end of July, after his 18th birthday, and the end of the 2024 Copa America.
Los Blancos have moved quickly to secure a deal for him in December 2022, amid transfer interest from the Premier League, and add to their attacking options.
However, despite the furore surrounding his development, Real Madrid fans will be aware of placing too much expectation on their young shoulders.
After scoring 21 senior goals for Palmerias, Endrick's final act for them will be to represent Brazil in the Copa America, after being named in the squad.
Brazil coach Dorival Junior acknowledged there will be plenty of hype around the teenager in the coming weeks, but offered a note of caution against expecting too much.
“We have to be a little careful with Endrick. We let things happen naturally. I have always been attentive to the development of young players,” according to reports from Brand.
