Real Madrid-bound Endrick makes his choice between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo

Endrick made his senior debut for Brazil against Colombia in their FIFA World Cup qualifier on November 17 (Friday). The 17-year-old was brought in in the place of Raphinha (82') during Selecao's 2-1 loss against Los Cafeteros.

Before Brazil locked horns against Argentina on Tuesday, the teenager was asked to choose between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. He said (via GOAL):

“I just want to enjoy the moment of being able to play against him, being in the same stadium as him, looking at him up close, I only saw him in the video game. Messi is a great player, but I'm more of a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. Now I'm seeing Messi up close, it's going to be wonderful.”

The forward has also addressed the Portuguese forward in his older interviews. During an interview with the Daily Mail, he once said that he would be proud to wear the same jersey as Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid.
