  WHAT HAPPENED?

  The young striker is poised to link up with Real in July 2024 and he gave an interview in September explaining how he planned to avoid negative headlines in the Spanish capital.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  The striker has been in remarkable form for the Brazilian club at the age of just 17 and has already scored 15 senior goals. He has been capped at Under-17 level by Brazil, and has already been called up to the senior squad, although he wasn't exactly given a warm welcome, as Arsenal defender Gabriel floored him in training.

• WHAT ENDRICK SAID

  Endrick told TNT Sports BR: "I hate going to parties… I don't like getting involved in controversy, I don't like doing anything that will dirty my image."

  Neymar, by comparison, reportedly partied with influencers before Brazil's last World Cup qualifier.
