How many fans attended Endrick’s Real Madrid presentation? Attendance compared to Kylian Mbappe and Cristiano Ronaldo unveiling
Brazilian forward Endrick was unveiled as a new Real Madrid player on July 27 at the Santiago Bernabéu. Let's take a look at the attendance during his presentation as compared to Kylian Mbappe's and Cristiano Ronaldo's.
In December 2022, Los Blancos had announced that they had reached an agreement with Palmeiras, Endrick, and his family to sign him when he turned 18.
His Real Madrid presentation recorded an attendance of 43,000 fans. Kylian Mbappe's presentation at the Spanish giants earlier this month was attended by 80,000 fans, which is the same as that of Cristiano Ronaldo's in 2009.
During his presentation, the Palmeiras academy graduate teared up, referring to his transfer to the La Liga giants as a dream. The 18-year-old said (via @FabrizioRomano on X):
"I have no words to describe what I'm feeling. I've always wanted to be here and play for Real Madrid. This is a dream. I have achieved our dream, not just mine, but also for my family. It’s for them."
The young Brazillian also sent a message to the Los Blancos fans, where he said:
"Hello @RealMadrid fans, it’s Endrick. I’m very happy to have my presentation at the Bernabéu. Excited for more. Hala Madrid! Thank you."
The Brazilian striker signed a six-year contract with Real Madrid and will be wearing the No.16 shirt.
