Real Madrid star Endrick Felipe appeared to be a fringe player in the first weeks of the season
But the Brazilian is used more and more by Carlo Ancelotti when matches go into extra time. The Brazilian is happy with his role at the moment.
After just ten minutes in Real Madrid’s first five games in La Liga, some have raised the possibility that he could consider a loan move in January, so as not to stunt his development. However, as with Arda Guler, Endrick was gradually introduced by Ancelotti and got his first start against Lille in the Champions League.
A happier player
Diario AS claim that Endrick is now happier in his role and has ruled out the possibility of leaving the club during the winter transfer window. He’s happy with the minutes he’s getting and has set himself the challenge of playing even more roles as the season goes on.
The young Brazilian could be gradually integrated into the fray, and it is not difficult to see Ancelotti calling on him more often as the season progresses. It is clear that rotation, fatigue and adaptation have a lot to do with it. But beyond that, Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappé can play in the middle, but Endrick is Ancelotti’s only natural number nine.
