The 19-year-old Brazilian striker has not played the slightest minute since May 18, the fault of a tendon injury from the hamstrings of the right leg, which he relapsed this summer and who deprived him of the World Cup and the first steps with his new coach Xabi Alonso. This has logically caused points to the former Palmeiras, who now accuses a substantial delay in the Real Madrid offensive hierarchy.

Especially since he could not take advantage of the absence of Kylian Mbappé during the tournament in the United States and was forced to see the young Gonzalo Garcia pass him. And if Gonzalo Garcia has so far played only 29 minutes in Liga, his explosion last July gives him an advantage in the battle to become the regular replacement of Kylian Mbappé.

The Madrid staff has set up a specific recovery plan in order to limit any risk of relapse for its 19 -year -old nugget. The objective is to allow him to gradually find his best physical and competitive level. Endrick himself took things seriously during his summer vacation, he who wishes to win in Real Madrid in the future.

With only 847 minutes played last season for 7 goals scored, the Brazilian knows that this season is crucial for his development and his status within the white club. Real Madrid and Xabi Alonso made him understand that his playing time will depend on his ability to quickly raise his level in order to resume his place in the hierarchy. Especially since Endrick will be in a hurry, since he will have to convince his former coach Carlo Ancelotti to take him to the next 2026 World Cup with Brazil.
