Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has told wonderkid Endrick that he will always get his time to play for the team.
Since joining the club, Endrick has played just 496 minutes across all competitions for Real Madrid so far this season, scoring six goals in the process.
However, he has often expressed his dissatisfaction with the way he has been used on the bench.
Speaking to the press ahead of Real Madrid’s Copa del Rey semi-final second leg against Real Sociedad, Ancelotti has urged Endrick to bide his time if he wants to be a success at the Spanish giants.

“Who’s worried? I don’t know. I’m delighted with him. I’ve given him minutes whenever I can, and he’s always taken advantage of them.
“Is he concerned? I don’t know. He has a chance to play tomorrow. I’m considering playing him. It depends on many things.
“Beyond competition, nothing is missing. It’s a matter of competition. There are players who are extremely high quality.
“I think the history of this club shows that many starters have sucked it up on the bench for a long time. Vinicius, for a couple of years, Rodrygo, Valverde, Camavinga. If you want to be at Real Madrid, you have to suck it up on the bench for a bit.”
