Once again, Endrick didn't play a second. Wednesday evening at the Bernabeu, while his Real Madrid team won narrowly against Juventus (1-0, 3rd day of the Champions League), the Brazilian remained on the bench. A constant since the start of the season. A departure on loan this winter is mentioned and OM would be in the running. Not to everyone's taste.

While OM lost at the same time at Sporting (2-1), some observers mentioned the upcoming transfer window at Canebière. And for some, the possible arrival of Endrick would not be good news. Columnist for the L'Équipe channel, Nicolas Vilas took a position on the subject.
“The transfer window will return. Marseille that’s it. (…) It’s not necessarily the departures that worry me, it’s the potential arrivals. »

And the journalist brings up the Endrick case. “It’s going to be a big mess. You have what it takes. There may be one who will lose his place. » After the long-term injury of Amine Gouiri, who had shoulder surgery and was absent for several months, Olympique de Marseille could indeed be tempted to recruit.

Endrick, a dangerous arrival for the OM locker room?

Always fond of good deals, President Pablo Longoria should not pass his turn if the possibility of recovering Endrick arises. However, it remains to be seen what the financial conditions of such an arrival could be. As is often done, remuneration based on the number of minutes played (the more time the player spends on the pitch, the less the club pays) could be put in place.

But such recruitment could therefore have harmful consequences within the Marseille locker room. Roberto De Zerbi should have his say in the story. In any case, it remains that Endrick is champing at the bit at Real Madrid, he who has had zero seconds of playing time since the start of the season under the orders of Xabi Alonso.
