Endrick became the youngest foreign player to score for Real Madrid in La Liga history when he registered on his debut for the Spanish and European champions on Sunday against Real Valladolid.
The Brazil international was an unused substitute for Real Madrid's first two matches of the 2024-25 campaign against Atalanta BC in the UEFA Super Cup and Mallorca in La Liga.
However, he was introduced in the 86th minute of Sunday's clash with Real Valladolid, replacing fellow new signing Kylian Mbappe, who is still waiting for his first league goal for the club.
Endrick registered for Los Blancos with a brilliant finish in the 96th minute, and the strike saw him become the youngest foreign player to score for the club in the history of La Liga at the age of 18 years and 35 days old.
The forward has taken the record from Raphael Varane, with the Frenchman scoring against Rayo Vallecano back in 2011 at the age of 18 years and 152 days old.

Endrick scored first Real Madrid goal against Real Valladolid
Endrick arrived at Real Madrid over the summer off the back of scoring 21 goals and registering four assists in 82 appearances for Palmeiras in all competitions.
The forward had to be patient in his new club's opening two games of the season, and he would have been disappointed not to have featured against Mallorca last weekend.
However, Endrick made a huge impression with his 10-minute cameo on Sunday, and he will now be pushing to secure more action when Los Blancos continue their La Liga campaign against Las Palmas on Sunday.
Carlo Ancelotti's side had been frustrated by Real Valladolid in the first half of the league clash, but Federico Valverde made the breakthrough in the 50th minute, before Brahim Diaz netted a second in the 88th minute.

Ancelotti: Real Madrid 'are blessed' to have Valverde
"I have a good impression. We have to be happy. We had difficulties in the first half, but in the second half we were more active, with movement and speed with the ball," Ancelotti told reporters in his post-match press conference.
"The team was more compact and we recovered quickly after losing the ball. We did a better job together. Today we did a better job defensively than we did in Mallorca.
"Valverde continues to progress. Obviously, he shows a lot more personality. For me it is not difficult to say that he cannot be replaced because of his quality, his strength, his intelligence. It is a blessing to have him.
"I think that when [Toni] Kroos left the club, he chose the perfect player to replace him, not because of his quality, but because of his mentality."
Real Madrid have closed their business for the summer transfer window, meaning that there will not be any first-team incomings or outgoings at Bernabeu in the latter stages of the market.
