If I get on the tube after a long day of creating shareholder value, and someone in boxers stands in front of my face/sits next to me, I’m crashing out.
🥺 Endrick’s letter to his younger brother, Noah…
"In our family, we weren’t born into wealth. We were born into football.
For three generations, and maybe more, our family has chased the dream of football. We have been trying to change our circumstances.
Back then, we did not have a fancy apartment, the fridge full of yoghurts that you loved so much…
Mother eating the old cornbread. Father sleeping under the ticket booth. Mom crying in the bathroom. Father crying on the couch.
I don’t know when you will be reading this letter, but right now you are 4 years old, and our lives are changing very fast.
In the next few months, I am going to Spain to play for Real Madrid — yes, the team that I always pick on PlayStation when you watch me.
But now, you can do whatever you want... there is no stress anymore. Thanks to god, mum, dad and football.
You just enjoy your life how you want brother. That is my gift to you.
The life we are living now didn’t come out of nowhere.
I love you, Noah.” @PlayersTribune
