Endrick to Wear No. 16 for Real Madrid
Real Madrid’s highly-anticipated signing, Endrick, will don the number 16 jersey for the upcoming season. The Brazilian teenager had initially been set to inherit the iconic number nine shirt, but Kylian Mbappe’s recent arrival has changed those plans.
The 18-year-old, who will be officially unveiled by the club on Saturday, is no stranger to the number 16. He wore it during his early days at Palmeiras before eventually switching to his preferred number nine. As fate would have it, Endrick’s Real Madrid journey begins with the same number that marked the start of his professional career.
