Two ballers! Future Real Madrid star Endrick links up with Boston Celtics' Jayson Tatum courtside before win over Cleveland Cavaliers

The 17-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable rise to fame after securing a big-money move to Madrid 12 months ago. And he reached another unofficial milestone last night, being pictured with NBA star Jayson Tatum courtside at a Boston Celtics game.

Endrick was the subject of a high-profile transfer saga last year, with Madrid, Barcelona and Arsenal vying for his signature. After sealing his transfer to Los Blancos, his star has only grown. He earned a Brazil cap in November, and won the league with Palmeiras.

The teenager broke several records at club and national level this year. Most recently, he became the second youngest player in Brazilian Serie A history to reach 10 goals — eclipsing a record set by none other than Neymar.

The forward will enjoy a 2 month break before his return to action. Palmeiras start their 2024 campaign in late January, kicking things off with a clash against Novorizontino.
