Although Endrick is among the most promising young players in football, his future at Real Madrid is far from assured. The Brazilian teenager could find it challenging to earn consistent playing time as the Spanish powerhouses welcome new boss Xabi Alonso and bolster their already formidable assault. Endrick's chances of making an impression have been few since joining Real Madrid. He struggled to make an impression in the first squad under Carlo Ancelotti and frequently stayed on the bench since there wasn't much place for a young player to develop in the team's star-studded assault.
With Xabi Alonso's current emphasis on winning right away, Endrick's situation could not get much better. Given the need to produce championships, Alonso is unlikely to put a young player's development ahead of that of more seasoned players.
