Real Madrid have become a great nurturing spot for Brazilian talent in recent years. The club signed Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo solely based on their raw potential. The risk has paid off though and both have developed into first-team stars. On the other hand, while Eder Militao was signed after a great season with FC Porto, he was nowhere near the player back then, that he has become at Santiago Bernabeu.
Naturally, this surely has made Real Madrid an attractive club for Brazilian players to join and just recently, they have been linked with Endrick of Palmeiras and Joao Gomes of Flamengo.
Savio is a highly rated Brazilian winger, who is currently on loan at PSV Eindhoven from French Ligue 1 side, Troyes. He is enjoying a very good start at the Dutch club as well, in what is his very first season of European football. The 18-year-old already has big ambitions though.
Savio has admitted that he dreams of playing at Real Madrid alongside Rodrygo one day. As reported by AS, he told Voetbalprimeur:
"“An example for me? Rodrygo’s career attracts me a lot. Playing with him one day at Real Madrid is a dream. But I haven’t gotten that far yet and I have to prove myself here first.”"

It is safe to say that Savio has not played a lot of football at the senior level yet. He came through the ranks at Atletico Mineiro and quickly earned himself a move to Troyes.
The French club swiftly sent him out on loan to Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven though and it might be a great place for him to develop his game further. He certainly has made a very good start.
At 18 years of age, he is a long way away from a move to Real Madrid though. But it could very well happen one day if he is able to prove himself during his time at PSV and eventually Troyes. Never say never in football.
