Endrick's goal also made him the youngest Real Madrid player to score on his LaLiga debut in the 21st century, at just 18 years and 35 days old. Additionally, he became the youngest foreign player to ever score a LaLiga goal for Real Madrid, netting just 10 minutes into his first official match with the team.

First team stars including Vinicus Junior, Jude Bellingham, David Alaba, and Rodrygo Goes all left messages of support for Endrick, but they all called him “Bobby”, an apparent nickname for their new teammate.

The nickname comes from a previous comment by Endrick, where he claimed that his football icons were former Real Madrid great, Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United legend Sir Bobby Charlton, who last played for the Red Devils 33 years before Endrick was born.

The Brazilian teenager was teased by fans online over his claim, and his love for the Manchester United legend has led to a new nickname for Endrick.
