The young man has been absent since September due to an injury to the hamstrings and faces fierce competition for playing time in Real Madrid. After missing the club World Cup and the start of the season, his return offers the hope of bringing depth to the Madrid attack.
Endrick's return after an injury
The Brazilian striker worked well to find his way to victory after an injury to the hamstrings who deprived him of the Club World Cup and the start of the season. Although it is in good shape to be selected for the last games, Alonso has been cautious about its reintegration, stressing the importance of finding the right time for its return.
ALONSO confident for endrick
Alonso admitted that Endrick had trained in recent weeks and confirmed that he could play soon. Alonso recognized competition for offensive positions, but insisted that the player of 19 years old will have his chance, explaining his return as a question of timing rather than preparation.
“He has a chance to hold. He comes back from a slightly longer injury, but he has been training well for a few weeks and all you have to do is find the right game context for his entry into play “Said the Spaniard before the match against Villarreal.
He added: ” He has the instinct of the scorer, a brutal finish. The competition is tough, but its time will come. »»
With Gonzalo Garcia who shines in the World Cup clubs and confirmed players like Kylian Mbappé already at the forefront, Endrick is struggling to obtain regular playing time. His patience will be put to the test, especially since the Merengues will seek to reconcile their national and European commitments. The young player refused loans to fight for his place, thus demonstrating his determination to prove himself to the Bernabéu.
