FUTURE Real Madrid star Endrick managed to avoid any punishment after he blatantly PUNCHED an opponent this weekend.
The 17-year-old Brazilian wonderkid will move to the LaLiga giants after Palmeiras accepted a £60million offer last summer.
He has remained with his boyhood club until he is able to complete his Spanish switch once he turns 18 at the end of the season.
Big things are expected of Endrick and he recently made his debut for Brazil against Colombia, becoming the fourth-youngest player ever to line up for the five-time world champions.
However, the teenage attacker showed his angry side this weekend during his team’s feisty 2-2 draw away to Fortaleza.
Enrick’s frustrations got the better of him as he was challenged by Thiago Galhardo as he lashed out at his rival after making a pass.

He instantly turned round and swung a right-hand at Galhardo, catching him unaware.
Footage shows that the blow appeared to land on the top of the chest and sent his fellow Brazilian rolling to the floor.
The referee quickly blew his whistle as he raced over to the scene with everyone expecting him to at least issue a card to Endrick.
But, much to the amazement of the furious Fortaleza players, no disciplinary action was taken.
