Real Madrid Striker Escapes Unhurt Following Brutal Tackle in Palmeiras' Serie A Draw: Video

• Real Madrid signed teenage star Endrick from Palmeiras in December 2022
• The 17-year-old has been a revelation since debuting for the Brazilian club
• Endrick was taken out by a brutal tackle in the fixture away at Corinthians

Real Madrid’s quest to snap up Brazilian talents in their 'infancy' led them to the signing of young Brazilian forward, Endrick Felipe, who has taken South American football by storm with his amazing football prowess.

The La Liga giants' pursuit of youngsters is spurred by the successes they recorded with the signings of Rodrygo de Goes and Vinicius Jr, who both have grown to become the arrowheads of the Los Blancos attack.

Endrick, who is set to join Real Madrid in the summer of 2024 when he turns 18, per a report by Marca, was once again at the thick of the action in Palmeiras’ goalless away draw at Corinthians after coming off the bench in the 85th minute.
