Diniz says Real Madrid signing Endrick 'can be Brazilian legend'

Brazil coach Fernando Diniz is convinced about the future of Endrick.

The Palmeiras striker will join Real Madrid next summer and is part of Diniz's squad this week. At 17, Endrick is the youngest player to be called up to the Selecao since Ronaldo.

Diniz said, "Endrick is here because of his merit and his enormous future potential.

"We don't have to expect everything from a 17-year-old player.

"I see enormous potential in him. He could become one of those legendary players in Brazilian football, but time will tell."
