Endrick makes decision on Real Madrid future ahead of January transfer window as Brazilian wonderkid struggles for minutes with Carlo Ancelotti's side

LaLiga

Real Madrid

Las Palmas

<p>It <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/endrick-offered-escape-route-real-madrid-january-former-legend-ronaldo/blt817b771df8564649" target="_blank">had been expected that Endrick would look to get regular first team football</a> away from the Spanish giants and move on loan to another side in Europe. The Brazilian starlet has found it difficult to break into the first team and the presence of Kylian Mbappe ahead of him in the pecking order <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/endrick-considering-real-madrid-exit-brazilian-wonderkid-plan-b-kylian-mbappe-arrival/bltfbb3fa7b8f677182" target="_blank">made the prospect of a temporary move away from the club attractive</a>. However, <a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2024/12/08/endrick-cierra-puerta-saldra-cedido-mercado-invierno.html#google_vignette" target="_blank"><em>Marca </em>are reporting</a> that the forward is keen to fight for his place and stay at the club. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Endrick wants to prove that he can be of importance to Carlo Ancelotti in the second half of the season and believes he can best prove himself in Madrid, as opposed to at another club. The youngster is confident he can demonstrate his ability and become a key player for the side this season and believes he has already overcome similar challenges at Palmeiras that will help him again. Endrick is happy to bide his time in Madrid. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Endrick joined Real Madrid for €60 million (£52m/$64m) in the summer with a huge amount of hype <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/endrick-brazil-start-real-madrid-bound-wonderkid-copa-america/bltc770d24a0080d419" target="_blank">after scoring first his Brazil goal at Wembley</a> but has struggled to stamp his mark in the Spanish capital. He has played just 149 minutes of football this season and is yet to start for Ancelotti's side. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Madrid travel to Italy to take on high-flying Atalanta in the Champions League on Tuesday. Los Blancos have work to do in the competition to ensure they qualify for the next round, even if just via the play-off stage. After a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/liverpool-player-ratings-vs-real-madrid-alexis-mac-allister-conor-bradley-mohamed-salah/blt0376887f6b91fcc8" target="_blank">disappointing night in Liverpool</a> last time out, Madrid will be desperate to prove they can travel to a tricky ground and secure victory. </p>
