Brazil HubBrazil's national team may start Endrick in the World Cup round of 16 against Norway. The 19-year-old forward is a candidate to replace injured Lucas Paquetá.
Who is Endrick?
Endrick is an under-20 forward who already generates great popular excitement. At 19 years old, he is the most requested name by fans in the stadiums of the United States.
What happened to Paquetá?
Lucas Paquetá was injured and will not be able to play in the round of 16. Carlo Ancelotti's decision to replace him with Endrick may be an important step for the team's future.
What is the team's design?
Without Paquetá, the 4-3-3 may give way to a 4-2-4, with Endrick alternating movements on the right side and in the center of the attack. It was precisely in this role that the Brazilian gained points against Japan in the round of 16.
| Player | Age |
|---|---|
| Endrick | 19 |
| Neymar | 30 |
| Lucas Paquetá | 25 |
What comes next?
Brazil's national team will face Norway on Sunday at 5pm at MetLife Stadium. Endrick may be one of the starters and reinforce the team's bet on an under-20 forward in a World Cup.
