This 38th São Paulo championship title comes just a few months before Endrick’s departure for the Spanish capital. The Brazilian prodigy will therefore have left Palmeiras on an exceptional note, having actively participated in the club’s historic treble in this competition. This final victory against rival Santos seals in the most beautiful way Endrick’s successful stint in the green and white jersey, before he takes up the Madrid challenge next year.
