Endrick only wants to play, but remains uncertain for January
Endrick has called Roma and Milan, but has said he only wants to play and does not know what will happen in January. Endrick's future remains one of the hot topics at Real Madrid ahead of the January transfer window.
The Brazilian striker, who arrived in Spain with great expectations after his breakthrough at Palmeiras, admitted that he still has no certainty about the next chapter of his career, while reaffirming his desire to find more playing time.
Having been called up from the Brazilian national team camp, the 2006-born has spoken openly about his situation: “I’m only 20 years old, we’ll see how things go. I just want to play, be happy and help my teammates.”
Endrick has not ruled out any possibility for the immediate future: “I don’t know what will happen in January, it’s in God’s hands. I only wish the best for my career. Whatever has to happen, will happen. I will stay humble and keep giving my all.”

The Brazilian, however, clarified that he does not want to close the door on Real Madrid: “Madrid is a wonderful city, but I will always do what is necessary to grow in my career.”
José Mourinho's role
An important role in his management is being played by José Mourinho, who arrived on the bench of the Blancos and is very close to the young striker. Endrick described his relationship with the Portuguese coach: “I have great confidence in Mourinho. He contacts me every day, not to talk about football, but to find out how I am in my personal life.”
And this support seems to have strengthened his bond with the club: “I will always give everything for Real Madrid, because the club comes first above all. The attention and affection that Mourinho shows me give me even more motivation.”
