Real Madrid’s young sensation Endrick Felipe Moreira de Sousa, remains the only outfield player in the squad who has yet to feature under new manager Xabi Alonso this season. The Brazilian prodigy, who joined Los Blancos amid huge anticipation, continues to wait patiently for his first minutes in the Spanish top flight since Alonso took charge.
The 18-year-old forward arrived at the Santiago Bernabéu with great expectations following his breakout years at Palmeiras and his impressive performances for Brazil. However, despite his talent and promise, Alonso has opted for a cautious approach in integrating the teenager into the first-team setup.
While every other outfield player in Real Madrid’s squad has seen game time this season, Endrick has remained an unused substitute in several fixtures. Sources close to the club suggest that Alonso wants to give the youngster more time to adapt to the tactical demands of his system and the intensity of European football before handing him a debut.
Endrick’s situation has sparked conversation among fans eager to see the highly rated attacker showcase his skills on the grand stage. Nonetheless, the coaching staff reportedly view his development as a long-term project and believe his opportunity will come in due time.
With the season still in its early stages and multiple competitions ahead, including La Liga, the Champions League, and the Copa del Rey, Endrick’s first appearance under Alonso could be just around the corner. For now, the teenage star continues to train diligently, awaiting the moment he can finally step onto the pitch wearing Real Madrid’s famous white shirt.
