With the conclusion of both the Euros and Copa America in sight, Real Madrid are gearing up to assemble their immensely talented squad.
However, as is customary after each campaign, changes within the team are anticipated.
Toni Kroos and Nacho Fernandez’s departure will be deeply felt, while new faces will be present to inject fresh energy and reinforce the team.
Among the inductees is Endrick, who will soon make his long-awaited leap to the Spanish capital.
Carlo Ancelotti has conveyed his plans to Endrick
Now, as per UOL Esporte (h/t Mundo Deportivo), Carlo Ancelotti assured Endrick that he will be part of the first team and indicated that he does not intend for him to start in Castilla, as was the case with Vinicius and Rodrygo upon their arrival at Real Madrid.
Ancelotti conveyed to Endrick his importance for the upcoming season. Initially, the Brazilian may serve as a substitute given the presence of heavyweights like Vinicius, Mbappe, and Rodrygo.
But minutes for Endrick will not be scarce and he will be given ample time on the pitch. Given that Joselu has already departed, it is expected that the 17-year-old will find more game-time.
Endrick, for his part, is eager to kickstart life in Madrid. In fact, he has decided to shorten his vacation and will join Real Madrid’s training sessions starting on July 21, coinciding with his 18th birthday.
After a challenging Copa America campaign with Brazil, during which even Brazil legend Rivaldo criticized him, the young player is eager to demonstrate the talents he was renowned for at Palmeiras.
This early commitment demonstrates his eagerness to integrate quickly into the team and begin his journey with the club at a young age.
