Carlo Ancelotti, the Italian coach of Real Madrid, is planning to surprise his Brazilian player, Endrick Felipe, similar to the way he surprised Turkish player Arda Güler in a recent match against Liverpool. Both Endrick and Güler have faced limited playing time this season, often staying on the bench for extended periods. However, Ancelotti made the bold decision to start Güler against Liverpool and is now considering doing the same with Endrick in Sunday’s upcoming La Liga match against Getafe.
Endrick’s performance has shown significant improvement, earning him more chances on the field. While he had previously been sidelined, this may soon change, as Ancelotti plans to include him in the starting lineup against Getafe. This decision comes after Brahim Díaz’s recent injury issues following the Liverpool match and the return of Rodrigo Goes from injury.
With Vinícius Júnior unavailable for the Getafe game, Ancelotti is expected to position Kylian Mbappé on the left wing, which could open the door for Endrick to play as a center-forward. Endrick is eager for more playing time and believes he has earned it, a sentiment shared by the club’s sporting management, who see him as a constant threat to opposition defenses whenever he takes the field.
