THE BIGGER PICTURE
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. With Gonzalo Garcia impressing at the Club World Cup, Real Madrid have opted to retain the Spanish striker. 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.
