Endrick’s limited playing time and his desire to showcase his talents have led him to make a crucial decision about his future. He has informed Carlo Ancelotti of his plan to leave Real Madrid, with Real Betis becoming a possible destination.
The Situation at Real Madrid
Since his arrival at the club, Endrick has struggled to make the impact he had hoped for. Despite the absence of key players like Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo, the young forward has had minimal chances in the first team.
In the Champions League, he has appeared in only three matches, two of which saw him play for under 10 minutes. In La Liga, he has played for less than 22 minutes in six games and was left out of both the Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup. This lack of playing time has led Endrick to reassess his situation.
Betis’s Need for a Striker
Meanwhile, Real Betis is facing challenges with their attacking performance. Under manager Manuel Pellegrini, the team has struggled to score, with most of their goals coming from midfielders like Lo Celso. Forwards such as Juanmi, Chimy Ávila, and Bakambu have not met expectations, leaving Betis in desperate need of a striker to strengthen their attack.
Endrick’s Desire for More Playing Time
Endrick has expressed to those close to him that he would prefer to find more playing time elsewhere rather than remain on the bench at Real Madrid. Sources close to the player suggest that he is considering a six-month loan move to showcase his abilities on the field.
A move to Betis is now a viable option, though there are still some uncertainties about whether the transfer will ultimately happen.
An Uncertain but Possible Move
Although a transfer to Betis is not guaranteed, it remains a real possibility. Endrick sees a change of scenery as a beneficial step, and Betis could gain from his offensive potential.
However, the move will depend on several factors, such as Real Madrid’s willingness to loan out Endrick and Betis’s genuine interest in acquiring him.
While the likelihood of Endrick joining Betis this winter seems low, he is determined to find a club where he can secure the playing time and prominence that he has not had at Madrid.
