Endrick’s goal in the Libertadores leaves Palmeiras close to Real Madrid’s million-dollar bonus

Endrick justifies, goal by goal, the millionaire investment that Real Madrid made when buying him from Palmeiras. The 17-year-old teenager scored the first of three goals in Verdão’s historic 3-2 victory over Independiente del Valle, last Wednesday, 24th, and got closer to reaching another ‘million’ mark in bonuses paid by the Merengues to Alviverde.

Not counting the two goals scored for the Olympic Team, Endrick reaches 19 goals since signing his sale to Real Madrid in 2022. The contract stipulates that the striker guarantees 2.5 million euros (R$ 13.7 million) for every 5 goals scored by Palmeiras, the main team or Real Madrid, with a limit of 25. In other words, one goal is missing before Endrick gives Verdão another big win.

Currently, the striker has scored 17 goals for Palmeiras, two for the main Brazilian team and two for the Olympic team, which do not count towards the goal. Endrick also secured another goal when he was called up to Canarinho by Fernando Diniz.

In total, Endrick has so far raised 8.75 million euros (R$48.2 million), out of 12.5 million euros possible with goal goals. The value can also increase with his performance as a starter for the Brazilian team.

Palmeiras’ agreement with Real Madrid for the sale of Endrick provides for 35 million euros (R$198 million at the time) in fixed value and 25 million euros (R$141 million) in bonuses. Not all planned goals were announced by Verdão.

See the goals achieved by Endrick so far:

• Five goals (three times) – 7.5 million euros (R$41.4 million)
• Call-up to the Brazilian National Team – 1.25 million euros (R$ 6.9 million)
