With the 2024/25 La Liga season just one game old, Real Madrid probably weren’t expected to hear that one of their players is already thinking about leaving.... CLICK TO READ THE FULL NEWS HERE▶▶
Particularly when said player has only signed for the club this summer.
Such is life at the biggest of football clubs, that unless you’re a solid gold 10 out of 10 player, you’re not guaranteed to play every single week.
Football players being as they are, there’s an expectation that they should always be first choice, however, a manager can only pick 11 players so, ultimately, some are always going to be disappointed.
Real Madrid’s Endrick already wants to leave
That certainly appears to be the case with young, world-class striker, Endrick.
The Brazilian talent had long been earmarked for the Santiago Bernabeu, but he’s very quickly found life in Europe to be much different to the adulation he enjoyed in his homeland.
For a start, he has Kylian Mbappe ahead of him in the pecking order, and there’s little chance of the French captain making way unless he’s injured or the game is effectively a dead rubber.
Endrick is behind Kylian Mbappe in the pecking order at Real Madrid and wants to leave in January if he doesn’t get sufficient minutes.
Whether it was Mbappe or any other big name up front, that should’ve been something that Endrick and his representatives factored in when they were being courted by Los Blancos 18 months or so ago.
Even Vini Jr., who can be considered as a worthy Ballon d’Or contender these days, didn’t have it all his own way in the early days in Madrid.
Indeed, 36 games in all competitions totalling just over a paltry 1,500 minutes in Vini Jr’s first season in Madrid, per transfermarkt, is compelling evidence that his countryman just needs to wait his turn.
According to Sport, however, the Brazilian is going to ask for a loan transfer in January if he doesn’t get what he considers to be sufficient minutes in the first half of the current campaign.
