Bellingham leaves future Real Madrid team-mate Endrick stunned with a SLAP

Jude Bellingham congratulated future Real Madrid team-mate Endrick with a slap after the teenager scored in Brazil’s 1-0 win over England.

Endrick was brought on to replace Rodrygo in the visitors’ forward line with the scored tied, making his third senior international appearance in the process.

Shortly after being introduced the Real Madrid-bound wonderkid found himself on the scoresheet, capitalising on a rebound after Jordan Pickford saved Vinicius Jr’s initial effort.

In doing so, at 17 years and 246 days Endrick became the youngest player to score at Wembley and the fourth-youngest in Brazil’s history behind only esteemed names such as Pele and Ronaldo.

He had the chance to score a second goal in the dying seconds of the match but saw his effort saved by Jordan Pickford.

And right after the full-time whistle, the youngster fell to his knees before Bellingham walked over to him and gave him a playful slap and then a hug.

The pair will official become team-mates at Real Madrid this summer once Endrick turns 18, having signed for the Spanish club in December 2022.

Speaking after the friendly match, he said: ‘I was just thinking about that (the goal), I couldn’t think about the game anymore, it even hurt me a little.

‘It’s a unique memory. My family is here, my girlfriend, my managers. I’m not much of a crier, I’m holding back, but it’s something unique and I’m very happy.’

Brazil will continue their preparations for this summer’s Copa America with a friendly against Spain on Tuesday night.

Meanwhile, England will be hopeful of bouncing back from defeat when they host Belgium.
