Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has thrown his full support behind young Brazilian sensation Endrick, despite the forward’s ongoing struggles in front of goal.

The 18-year-old has now gone 11 matches without finding the back of the net for Los Blancos, a run that continued in the recent 5-0 Copa del Rey victory over Deportiva Minera. While Endrick’s performances have been under the spotlight, Ancelotti remains unwavering in his belief that the teenager is on the right path.

Speaking after the match, Ancelotti offered a vote of confidence in the young star: “Endrick played well, the goals will come. He will score goals.”

The Italian tactician highlighted the importance of patience, emphasising that Endrick’s contributions to the team extend beyond just scoring. His work rate and ability to create opportunities have not gone unnoticed by the coaching staff and fans alike.

With Ancelotti’s public show of support, it’s clear that Real Madrid are backing Endrick to overcome this challenging spell and rediscover the form that made him one of the most exciting prospects in world football. The goals may not have arrived yet, but with his manager’s faith firmly behind him, the Brazilian forward has every chance to deliver sooner rather than later.
