“I know I'm in a new generation, I've been through a lot. I have the dream of becoming an idol for all children,” Endrick said after winning the title with Palmeiras. “I know that is difficult because there are people who don't like me, but I want to be a new idol for them. I want them to look at me and think that if I managed to be here, they can too.”
