Real Madrid are set for a massive upgrade in their attacking ranks for the season ahead.
Brazilian whizkid Endrick is set to join the club in the coming summer when he turns 18. Meanwhile, Real Madrid are favourites to acquire the services of Kylian Mbappe on a free transfer.
One would expect Endrick to play a minimal role in the Real Madrid first team next season consider Mbappe’s arrival. However, the reality is quite the opposite.
Endrick’s role won’t be impacted by Mbappe
According to Fabrizio Romano, Endrick remains determined to join the Real Madrid setup immediately.
The Brazilian has been waiting for a move to Santiago Bernabeu for quite some time now. He is eager to play in the first team and contribute to the team’s attacking unit.

Real Madrid, for their part, want Endrick to be a member of the club’s attacking unit in the coming summer.
The Spanish giants rate the player quite early and are aware of his talents. As such, they want the player to remain at Bernabeu.
No loan deal for Endrick
Romano adds that the arrival of Mbappe will not impact Real Madrid’s plans with Endrick. The team will continue to have the Brazilian as part of the squad.
No loan deal will be considered for the Palmeiras whizkid in the coming summer. This signifies the amount of trust Real Madrid have put in the youngster.
While it remains to be seen whether or not Endrick will live up to the expectations, it is worth mentioning that the youngster might have to remain patient, as far as first-team opportunities are concerned.
Real Madrid, after all, have a packed attacking unit, boasting the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Brahim Diaz. The addition of Mbappe will only make things difficult for Endrick.
Hence, the Brazilian must remain patient and wait for his opportunities, if he is to truly make a mark at Santiago Bernabeu next season.
