Real Madrid starlet’s camp frustrated and in disbelief over situation under Xabi Alonso | OneFootball

After a difficult debut season, during which he did not get regular opportunities, things have only gotten worse for Endrick at Real Madrid.

While he still managed to play around 800 minutes and score seven goals under Carlo Ancelotti last season, the 19-year-old striker has not featured in a single game this term with Xabi Alonso now at the helm.

The Brazilian international missed the FIFA Club World Cup, the pre-season, and the start of the new season due to an injury he was carrying from the last term.

But Endrick has been back to full fitness since last month and has still not gotten a single minute of action on the field, with Alonso constantly overlooking him.

Endrick’s camp not happy

Given the bizarre situation, journalist Jorge C Picon reports that Endrick’s camp is frustrated with Xabi Alonso and in total disbelief over the youngster’s current situation at Real Madrid.

The youngster’s entourage is convinced that with just a few minutes on the pitch the forward could turn things around and push for a prominent role in the team.

Their frustration is understandable after seven consecutive matches spent entirely on the bench, watching as Franco Mastantuono, newly arrived, becomes the manager’s favourite.

Given the situation, a future away from the Bernabeu seems to be taking shape, even if only temporarily, as a loan exit in January has become a serious possibility.

Real Madrid prefer move within Spain

As per the report, Real Madrid are now indeed considering a loan move for Endrick.

The Merengues would prefer a move within Spain, so that his progress can be closely monitored, adaptation made easier, and, above all, to allow him to obtain dual nationality next summer (granted after two years).

The 19-year-old attacker, however, wants to join a club competing in European tournaments -one that gives him visibility to help Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti consider him for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

There are still two months until January and around twenty matches before then. And a single goal could drastically change everything as far as Endrick’s situation is concerned. But for now, a loan exit seems the most likely outcome.
