“I SHOULD HAVE GIVEN HIM A HUG” – PALMEIRAS BOSS ABEL FERREIRA TELLS REAL MADRID-BOUND ENDRICK TO KEEP SMILING

作為巴西豪門帕爾梅拉斯的主教練，阿貝爾費雷拉的工作更具挑戰(zhàn)性的方面之一是精心培養(yǎng)該國最聰明和最年輕的新興人才之一：恩德里克。 這位 16 歲的中場球員已經簽署了一項協(xié)議，將在他 18 歲時轉會至皇家馬德里。在此之前，阿貝爾負責指導這位新秀，每次代表圣保羅俱樂部時，他都會承受幾乎無法逃避的壓力。 恩德里克于 10 月首次代表帕爾梅拉斯隊出場，當時他滿 16 歲僅幾個月。去年 12 月宣布了將他帶到西班牙皇家馬德里的交易，但他將留在維爾多直到明年夏天達到職業(yè)比賽的法定年齡在歐洲，可以在圣地亞哥伯納烏接受挑戰(zhàn)。 恩德里克在上個賽季末的短暫上場期間曾三度入網，但他在正在進行的坎皮奧納托保利斯塔州錦標賽中的七場比賽中仍未進球。在昨晚 2-0 戰(zhàn)勝佩德羅·凱辛哈的布拉甘蒂諾的比賽一小時后，阿貝爾決定換下這名年輕球員，隨后在替補席上看到情緒激動的恩德里克用球衣遮住臉。 “他是一個去年打進了決定性進球的孩子，他幫助我們擊敗了米內羅競技隊，”當被問及他的新星時，阿貝爾告訴環(huán)球體育報。 “我請他不要失去臉上的笑容。他會失敗，他會成功。他今年 16 歲，如果他像這里的球員一樣正常踢球，他會一直踢到 40 歲。全隊都在幫助他：教練和俱樂部。 “他必須保持冷靜。沒有人喜歡閱讀評論。當然，打進五六個球的壓力是巨大的，他試圖自己去應對。他會在正確的時間得分。他必須冷靜，不能失去笑容。 “是的，他把襯衫[放在臉上]是因為他哭了。我不是他的父親，但我應該給他一個擁抱。他必須保持冷靜，保持微笑，并記住他去迪士尼時的快樂?！? One of the more challenging aspects of Abel Ferreira’s job as manager of Brazilian giants Palmeiras is the carefully nurturing of one of the country’s brightest – and youngest – emerging talents: Endrick. The 16-year-old midfielder has already signed a deal to move to Real Madrid when he turns 18. Until then, Abel is in charge of guiding a prospect upon whom almost inescapable pressure is being applied every time he represents the Sao Paulo club. Enrick made his debut for Palmeiras in October, just a few months after turning 16. The deal to take him to Spain with Real Madrid was announced in December, but he will remain with Verd?o until next summer when he meets the legal age to play professionally in Europe and can take on the challenge at the Santiago Bernabeu. Having found the net three times during his short introduction towards the end of last season, Endrick is yet to score in seven matches in the ongoing Campeonato Paulista State Championship. Abel made the decision to substitute the youngster after an hour of last night’s 2-0 victory over Pedro Caixinha’s Bragantino, following which an emotional Endrick was seen covering his face with his jersey on the bench. “He's a kid who scored decisive goals last year, he helped us beat Atlético Mineiro,” Abel told Globoesporte when asked about his starlet. “I ask him not to lose the smile on his face. He will fail, he will succeed. He's 16 years old, if he plays normally like they do here, he'll play until he's 40. The squad is here to help him: the coach and the club too. ′′He has to be calm. Nobody likes to read reviews. Of course, there is tremendous pressure to score five, six goals, and he tries to deal with that himself. He will score at the right time. He has to be calm, not lose his smile. “It's true, he put the shirt [on his face] because he cried. I'm not his father, but I should have given him a hug. He has to be calm, keep smiling and remember the joy he had when he went to Disney.” https://onefootball.com/en/news/i-should-have-given-him-a-hug-palmeiras-boss-abel-ferreira-tells-real-madrid-bound-endrick-to-keep-smiling-36855554?language=en
