Real Madrid receives disturbing reports from Brazil about Endrick
It’s not being Endrick’s summer . Despite the fact that his team, Palmeiras, is going through a good run of results with four wins in its last four games, the future Real Madrid striker is not responsible. It seems that he does not have the confidence of his coach , the Portuguese Abel Ferreira, who in these months is betting on lining up Rony or the Argentine José López ahead of the young Brazilian pearl.
The lack of continuity of the very young attacker is beginning to be worrying. He has barely participated in two of his team’s last nine games , and only one of them as a starter. It was in Palmeiras’ defeat against Marcelo’s Fluminense , in which he didn’t even manage to finish off on goal.
His last minutes came against Cruzeiro , when he had a little less than half an hour, but he didn’t manage to shoot on goal either. Since then, three blank matches.
Since he made history in the Copa Libertadores last June , when he scored his first goal in the competition before he turned 17 , his participation has plummeted. He scored two goals after that, his team went on a losing streak of results , and as soon as they won again “disappeared”.
In fact, the moment of greatest prominence for him in these months occurred in the round of 16 round of Libertadores against Atletico Mineiro . He did not play, but he was sent off while on the bench , so he could not play the first leg of the quarterfinals.
This week, on Wednesday, Palmeiras will play that second leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals against Deportivo Pereira from Colombia. With a 0-4 result in the first leg in favor of the Brazilians, it may be the opportunity for Abel Ferreira to line up Endrick at the start and once again have an opportunity to vindicate himself.
Vitor Roque, sweet
The future forward of Barça represents the opposite side of the coin. His team, Athletico Paranaense, is not going through the best streak of results. He is seventh in the Brazilian championship and was eliminated in the round of 16 of the Libertadores against Bolívar, despite the fact that the 18-year-old scored a goal to take the tie to penalties.
However, that goal started a streak of three goals in the last four games , the last two in a row and to save both draws for his team. Last night he served this header in discount against Fluminense, which rounds off his great summer finale and points to Endrick and his lack of continuity in Palmeiras.
