Real Madrid is immersed in a World Cup where, beyond the fight for the title, there is more at stake internally. The arrival of Xabi Alonso marks the beginning of a new era and a new way of doing things in which some players may not fit in or become secondary and want to leave in search of a more prominent role. One of those men in the firing line is Endrick, who has just arrived in Miami to continue recovering from his injury, already in training with the team and under the supervision of the new coach, who will have to make decisions about the future of a player who has suitors looking to sign him in this summer transfer window.
Endrick arrives in Miami
Despite the fact that Endrick will remain out of the team for the entire Club World Cup after suffering a muscle injury a month ago. He is still in the process of recovery, but the club wanted him to travel to the training camp to continue his recovery there after working alone in Valdebebas. He is not coming to play, but to finally be in contact with his new coach, who will want to see what he can bring to the team given the fierce competition in attack at the moment with the emergence of Gonzalo.
Gonzalo, a new competitor
Endrick has already had little playing time this season under Carlo Ancelotti, and in the games he has played, he has not really stood out, nor is he the type of player Real Madrid is looking for to replace Joselu.
Gonzalo García is providing that profile, playing a starring role in the Club World Cup with an outstanding performance. Against Al Hilal, he was the bright spot in a lackluster team performance that ended in a draw and even saw him miss a penalty.
This was a great start, which he followed up with two more starts in the absence of Mbappe. Against Pachuca, he was key in creating play and provided an assist for Arda Guler in the second goal of the match. Against Salzburg, the team’s overall play improved, and Gonzalo continued his good form with another goal that cemented his place in the attack and gives him a good chance of continuing in the first team.
A way out for Endrick
With the youngster’s great World Cup, the door is opening a little wider for the young Brazilian striker, who is looking for playing time that he may not get under Xabi Alonso. It is a decision to be made, but the player has options to leave and a European champion is on the prowl.
None other than the Whites’ next opponent in the round of 16, Juventus.
According to Tuttosport, the situation of the Madrid player is being monitored. According to the aforementioned information, the Vecchia Signora would be willing to start negotiations for the player, either on loan or on a permanent transfer, depending on the preference of the Whites, who are open to finalizing the deal.
