Endrick defies Real Madrid and Carlo Ancelotti! Injured striker cites Vinicius Jr as reason to stay despite La Liga club and Brazil coach pressing for loan move

<p>According to <a href="https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/real-madrid/artigo/_/id/15460568/real-madrid-e-ancelotti-ja-preferem-que-endrick-seja-emprestado-jogador-usa-vinicius-jr-como-espelho-para-ficar" target="_blank"><em>ESPN</em></a>, Endrick has insisted to Madrid that he wants to stay, inspired by the success of Vinicius, Rodrygo, and Arda Guler, who broke through at the club without leaving on loan. His entourage, also pointed to the struggles of Reinier and Luka Jovic during their loan spells and chose to go against the advice of former Madrid and current Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti, who urged him to seek regular playing time.</p>

<p>Endrick saw limited action last season, clocking just 847 minutes, mostly in the Copa del Rey, as he fell behind Kylian Mbappe in the pecking order.

Playing time will again be scarce for Endrick under new coach Xabi Alonso and while Madrid would prefer to send him out for a season, he is willing to wait it out.</p>
