Endrick was thrown in at the deep end upon his arrival at Real Madrid. Unfortunately, the 18-year-old Brazilian forward started his adventure with the Merengues on a sour note.
Starting at the forefront of the Blancos attack against AC Milan (1-0) this Thursday during a friendly match of the American pre-season tour, the Auriverde was unable to prevent his team’s defeat.
Ancelotti under the spell
Despite the setback at Soldier Field in Chicago, Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti noted many positive aspects about the former Palmeiras striker. The Italian praised his technique and his ease in the short game.
“He has something special. He is able to reach maximum speed in a small space, he is very skillful. It is very rare to see a player like that,” judged the “Mister” in the post-match press conference.
