Endrick, determined to secure more playing time at Real Madrid, chose to remain in Madrid during the Christmas break to focus on training instead of traveling.

Endrick Skips Vacation to Reclaim Spot at Real Madrid

Endrick is unwavering in his efforts to overcome his limited playing time at Real Madrid. Demonstrating his commitment, he opted to stay in Madrid during the Christmas holidays, focusing on training rather than vacationing like many of his teammates.

Accompanied by his family and long-time mentor, Vinícius Novato, Endrick has been sharing glimpses of his rigorous training regimen on social media, including gym workouts and individual drills. Those close to the Brazilian forward note his calm demeanor and understanding of the fierce competition for forward positions, given the presence of stars like Kylian Mbappé, Rodrygo, and Vinícius Júnior.

Despite a modest tally of 160 minutes across 15 appearances this season—averaging just over 10 minutes per game—and only one start against Lille in the Champions League, Endrick remains undeterred. He draws inspiration from teammates like Arda Güler, who transitioned from a similar situation last year to become a key player in the 2024-2025 season.

With Real Madrid resuming training on December 30th in preparation for their January 3rd match against Valencia, Endrick is poised to seize any opportunity presented by coach Carlos Ancelotti. His unwavering dedication underscores his ambition to become an integral part of Real Madrid's attacking lineup.
