Real Madrid’s forward, Endrick, faces uncertainty for the Club World Cup and Brazil’s World Cup qualifiers due to a hamstring injury.
The 18-year-old was forced off the field in the 58th minute during Madrid’s 2-0 win over Sevilla last weekend. The club confirmed an injury to his right leg’s hamstring tendon, with reports suggesting a two-month absence.
Endrick’s injury adds to Real Madrid’s growing list of sidelined players, including Vinicius Junior, Antonio Rudiger, Eduardo Camavinga, Lucas Vazquez, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, Ferland Mendy, and David Alaba. This setback means he will miss crucial matches for both his club and country.
The young forward is set to miss Real Madrid’s final LaLiga match against Real Sociedad on Saturday. Following this, Madrid will begin their Club World Cup journey against Al-Hilal from the Saudi Pro League on June 18. His absence will be felt as the team navigates these important fixtures.
Brazil will also feel Endrick’s absence in their upcoming World Cup qualifiers. The national team is scheduled to face Ecuador on June 5 and then host Paraguay five days later. His unavailability could impact Brazil’s strategy in these crucial games.
Real Madrid released a statement detailing Endrick’s condition after medical tests were conducted by the club’s medical team. “Following tests carried out today on our player Endrick by Real Madrid’s medical services, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the hamstring tendon in his right leg. He will be monitored closely,” they said.
This injury is another challenge for Los Blancos as they deal with multiple key players being out of action. The team must adapt quickly to maintain their performance levels without these essential squad members.
Endrick’s recovery will be closely watched by both Real Madrid and Brazil as they hope for his swift return to fitness. His presence is vital for both teams’ success in upcoming competitions.
