Endrick makes decision regarding Real Madrid future amid loan-exit rumors: Reports
Endrick has decided not to leave Real Madrid on loan in January, according to AS. The highly-rated Brazilian prodigy arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu from Palmeiras this summer.
Los Blancos announced that they had signed the teenager in December 2022. However, Endrick only joined the club this summer, after he turned 18 in July.
The Brazilian has struggled for game time under Carlo Ancelotti this season. With a plethora of attacking options at hand, Endrick has had to bide his time at Real Madrid.
However, the teenage striker has still managed two goals and one assist from nine games across competitions. All but one of his appearances have been from the bench though, with the youngster yet to start a game in LaLiga.
The situation has added to speculation regarding his future. Recent reports have suggested that the teenager is frustrated at playing second fiddle to the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes at the Santiago Bernabeu.
It has also been suggested that Enrick could look to leave Los Blancos in January on loan to secure regular playing time. However, it now appears that those reports are far from the truth.
The Brazilian is apparently settled at Real Madrid and happy with his progress. He has exceeded his expectations, and his entourage is also pleased with how his life has unfolded in Europe. As such, no efforts are being made to secure a temporary exit at the turn of the year.
Endrick always knew he would face severe competition for places at the Santiago Bernabeu. He wants to stay and continue his development with some of the best in the business.
How many goals have Real Madrid scored this season?
Real Madrid roped in long-term target Kylian Mbappe on a Bosman move this summer. While the French superstar hasn't been at his scintillating best yet, he has still registered eight goals and one assist from 12 games across competitions.
Los Blancos have also enjoyed an impressive start to the new campaign under Carlo Ancelotti. The reigning LaLiga champions have scored 21 times in their 10 games in the league, conceding just seven.
While they are trailing current league leaders Barcelona by three points, they remain in the mix for the title. Real Madrid have registered seven wins in LaLiga and are yet to taste defeat in the league. They have scored 26 goals in total from 13 games across competitions and have lost just one game so far.
