18-year-old Brazilian forward Endrick has struggled to cement one of the slots in Real Madrid’s attack due to indescribable competition.
The former Palmeiras striker is a very good player after putting up great performances in the Brazilian Serie A Betano before making a dream move to the Spanish capital.
He has not been playing regularly in Spain, but whenever he gets the chance, you can see his impact.
In the second leg of Real Madrid’s Copa Del Rey against Real Sociedad which ended 4-4 after extra time, Endrick got a rare start and paid the faith had in him by Carlo Ancelotti.
Real Sociedad via Barrenetxea took the lead in 26 minutes to make the tie 1-1. Endrick scored to restore parity and put Real Madrid in front of the tie. Kylian Mbappe replaced Endrick in the 66th minute.
Speaking after the game, the Brazilian revealed that Real Madrid has the best four players in the world so he must work hard to be considered to play.
“Here we’ve Vini, Mbappé, Jude and Rodrygo… the four best players in the world. I’m NO ONE,” Endrick said.
“I’m here to work, and it’s not about who starts; I have to do my best and work hard to stay at Real Madrid my whole life,” he ended.
Real Madrid has booked a place in the finals of the Copa Del Rey and is also in contention for the La Liga title as well as the UEFA Champions League.
The season is approaching a stage where squad depth is key; hence, Endrick is expecting to enjoy more minutes before the campaign ends.
