Imagine being brazilian and thinking players from your country don't get enough hype lol. You're fine. Endrick was crowned the next Pele before he even turned 16.

Because Real Madrid literally showed in practice that whenever they pay tens of millions for a Brazilian kid, there is a high chance that it was a good deal. Neymar, Vini, Rodrigo and Marcelo had to prove this on the pitch, all being vital in UCL wins, objectively undeniable success. Others get much more praise with way less done. It extends beyond the guys I mentioned - just compare how much attention is given to Alisson or Ederson relative to Ter Steven or Courtois, too. Alisson, like Vini, was snubbed from being in the list of the best keeper; Casemiro and Thiago Silva had to move to England in their 30s to start being seen after very successful careers. Can you imagine the attention that an English kid would get for doing this and what rodrygo did to city?
