Kylian Mbappé could soon be the victim of the rise of the young Brazilian striker, Endrick.

This summer, Kylian Mbappé fulfilled his childhood dream by joining Real Madrid. The same is true of Endrick, who is heralded as the future star of Brazilian football. And despite his limited playing time since the start of the season, the young Auriverde striker has scored big points with Carlo Ancelotti when he comes on.

So much so that the Madrid coach is considering starting him in the coming weeks. Endrick will start in one of the next matches and in the future he will start in many Real Madrid matches, given his quality, it is quite obvious”Ancelotti said at a press conference on Friday.

Ancelotti on Endrick: “He is a very humble boy”

“He is a very humble boy who speaks very little and works very hard. I really like that.”added the former PSG coach about his Brazilian nugget, who plays in the same position as Kylian Mbappé… Moreover, he has replaced the captain of the Blues several times since the start of the season.

With the series of matches looming, Carlo Ancelotti could therefore give Kylian Mbappé a break and allow Endrick to get a little more playing time. It must be said that the former Palmeiras player has made 5 appearances (all competitions combined) since the start of the season, spending a total of 20 minutes on the pitch – for 2 goals scored. It remains to be seen whether he will make his first start in the Merengue jersey this Saturday against Espanyol Barcelona in La Liga.
