Endrick, the young Brazilian prospect, is set to join Real Madrid next summer. However, he has made it clear that he won’t be following a dissolute lifestyle in Spain.
In an interview with TNT Sports, the 17-year-old forward expressed his disinterest in nightlife. « To be honest, I hate going out, I hate going to parties. I prefer going to a restaurant. I prefer doing things with my family. I don’t want to know how much I’m going to earn, how much I’m going to make, contracts, all that. »
« I just want to play football. Of course, I have to know some things, but for me, it’s not important. I know that for a young person, it can quickly get to their head. But thank God, I turned professional very young, I was able to see things. I was able to see things that happened to players that you shouldn’t do. I have to learn from other people. And that’s what I did, » he stated.
« I took everything good that I had to not do anything wrong. I stay calm, I do nothing. I don’t like to be involved in controversies. I don’t like to do things that will tarnish my image. I like to be close to people who love me. I thank God for having this mentality because if I didn’t have it, I won’t lie, I would have already lost myself. I’ve been sold to Real Madrid (which he will join at 18), I play for the biggest club in Brazil. There are all the ingredients for a young person to lose themselves, but not me. »
