Real Madrid sensation Endrick was responsible for stealing the headlines once more in the early hours of Sunday.

And, safe to say, that Endrick went on to make his presence very much felt…
After an explosive start to life on the international stage with goals against both England and Brazil, the Real Madrid-bound frontman made it three in three on Sunday.
