Carlo Ancelotti has has enough. It is difficult to get a coach as experienced as the Italian to lose his temper, but Endrick has managed to do it.
The relationship between them is tense, very tense. It got even worse when the coach was asked at a press conference about the Brazilian star and he replied that "he needs to work harder if he wants to play."
Endrick was upset because he understands that he works hard in training as much as anyone else. That, however, is not the perception that Ancelotti has about Endrick.
Ancelotti Doesn't Like His Attitude
Only Vallejo has played less than him so far, which indicates the degree of trust that the Italian coach has in him.
Endrick is nervous because the three starting forwards, Vinícius, Mbappé and Rodrygo, are joined by Brahim and Arda Güler. He is the sixth striker for three places. And he finds it difficult to hide his displeasure during training.
Ancelotti notices this and reminds him that such an attitude will make it difficult for him to get minutes in his team.
Many things have to change for Ancelotti to trust him. Endrick is clear that, if Carletto remains in the Whites' dugout, he will have to pack his bags and look for a new team.
Endrick doesn't want to leave Real Madrid; he is convinced that he'll end up succeeding with the whites. Even so, he prefers to play on loan at another team to show his level and wait for the Ancelotti era to end at Real Madrid. He has no doubts that things would go better for him with another coach.
The Three Clubs That Have Shown Interest in Endrick
There will be movement with Endrick during this winter transfer window. Juventus, Benfica and Espanyol have already sent Florentino Pérez a formal proposal to keep the player on loan until the end of the season. Ancelotti has given his blessing to his departure.
Endrick won't be back at Real Madrid in January. So far he's played 69 minutes in La Liga and 78 minutes in the Champions League: 147 minutes. He hasn't even played a game and a half.
These statistics contrast with the expectations that his transfer raised and the price that Florentino Pérez paid: 60 million, plus 20 in variables.
