Real Madrid still had a quiet transfer window in January, despite the very noisy requirements of the local press to make signing sessions. There were no editions from the Santiago Bernabeu, but Los Blancos received a late bid for one of their fringe players.
The young attacker Endrick Felipe is largely limited this season to sources of competitions, his first in Europe after a relocation of € 40 million from Palmeiras that could rise to € 60 million including variables. So far, Endrick has only played 318 minutes this season, spread over 21 performances. Only two of those performances have also started.
Despite those relatively lean series of opportunities, Endrick is still on average a promising target contribution of one every 64 minutes, with 4 goals and an assist for his name to date. The Brazilian recently contributed a brace against Celta Vigo in extra time in the Copa del Rey, who was crucial to see them on to the quarterfinals against Leganes.
According to Marca, Endrick was also subject to a number of questions in the transfer star of January. One stood out for their insistence: West Ham United. The side of Julen Lopetegui caused a number of calls to both the camp of Real Madrid and Endrick, but both close the door to a movement.
Endrick believes that he will get more opportunities in the second half of the season and knew that this season is already a devoted to learning and growth, without too much playing time – despite his public shows of frustration sometimes. Manager Carlo Ancelotti has consistently refused any transfer interviews around Endrick, despite his lack of playing time, in which it is explained that his main care should be to continue working hard in training. With Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham, both excluded from their Copa del Rey collision against Leganes, the Copa could be another possibility for Endrick on Wednesday evening.
