OL: Endrick compared to Karim Benzema

Endrick has been making headlines ever since he signed on loan with OL. This Sunday, the young Brazilian sensation was even compared to Karim Benzema.

Endrick is rediscovering his best form at OL since his arrival. With four goals in three matches, the Brazilian prodigy is proving he’s a genuine global football talent. With such performances, the Palmeiras academy graduate is inevitably attracting praise.

Speaking to Téléfoot this Sunday, Cris couldn’t hide his admiration for his young compatriot. The former OL defender even compared Endrick to Karim Benzema. "I watched Karim Benzema grow up in Lyon. He had a huge personality. When I look at Endrick, I see the same thing. He can beat defenders one-on-one, he can make the difference in the box." he said.
