Endrick back in action for Real Madrid, Man Utd lurk nearby | OneFootball

Endrick finally got minutes again with Real Madrid. The Brazilian forward came on in the closing stages of the dramatic 2-3 win over Elche, taking the first step in a new phase in which he will look to regain a prominent role after several months being largely out of Los Blancos’ plans.

His return, however, once again puts his future at the center of the conversation.

Endrick returns to the scene with Real Madrid

The Brazilian took to the pitch alongside Carlos Espí in the final stretch of the match against Elche, when Real Madrid needed to find the winning goal.

Espí once again ended up becoming the hero by scoring the 2-3 in stoppage time, while Endrick had a quiet appearance, mainly positioned on the right flank.

Even so, his first minutes represent an important step after a difficult period in which he was even sent on loan to Olympique Lyonnais in search of regular playing time.

Real Madrid still have not decided his future

The club’s stance is to remain calm.

According to information published by Fichajes.com, Real Madrid intend to wait a few months before making a definitive decision about the Brazilian’s future.

The idea is to observe how his situation develops during an autumn packed with matches and see what role he can take on within José Mourinho’s squad.

This stance aligns with recent statements from Endrick’s camp, which has also not raised any immediate decision regarding his future.

Manchester United are closely monitoring his situation

While Real Madrid wait, Manchester United appear as one of the clubs keeping a close eye on the situation.

According to TeamTalk, the Old Trafford club are tracking the striker’s situation and could consider a move during the winter transfer window.

One of the possibilities being discussed would be a loan move, although for now there is no agreement or confirmed formal proposal.

United’s interest would be linked to the need to find attacking alternatives and to the possibility that Endrick may once again need minutes away from the Santiago Bernabéu to continue his development.

January could be key

Endrick now has several months to prove to Mourinho that he can become a useful piece for Real Madrid.

His appearance against Elche is only the beginning of that process. The Brazilian will have to make the most of every opportunity he gets in a squad where competition in attack is fierce.

Real Madrid have still not made a decision about his future, but Manchester United are already closely watching the situation. If Endrick cannot carve out a place for himself over the coming months, a loan move in January could once again be on the table.
