Brazilian wonderkid Endrick has revealed the impact Cristiano Ronaldo has had on his career and decision to join Real Madrid.
Endrick, 17, is set to move to Los Blancos from Palmeiras in the summer when he turns 18 after the Spanish giants beat off significant competition to sign him for a reported €60m (£52m).
Despite his tender age, the forward has already scored 17 goals and added two assists in 60 appearances for Palmeiras and earned his first two Brazil caps during the November international break.
And, speaking on the impact of Real legends like Ronaldo, Endrick insisted the Portuguese superstar helped to inspire him to move to the Bernabeu.
