Tantangan di Tahun Pertama

Kendati demikian, transisi ke sepak bola Eropa tidak berjalan mudah karena ia harus bersaing dengan nama-nama besar di lini serang Madrid.

"The first year is difficult. You arrive at a team with players like Modric, Vinicius and Rodrygo.

It’s very hard to play when you have all of them around you, but you also learn so much.

Everything I learned there, I was able to put into practice at Lyon, and when I return, I’ll be able to show it there as well," ungkap Endrick.

Pemain yang terikat kontrak di Bernabeu hingga Juni 2030 ini menambahkan bahwa kehadiran Bellingham dan Trent menjadi penyelamat emosional di tengah situasi berat tersebut.

"Bellingham calls me every day. When I was struggling, he would come over and we would talk.

He helped me a lot. Trent as well.

They’re very close and approachable players. I try to learn from them, including English, but it’s impossible to understand them," tutur Endrick.

Masa Peminjaman yang Produktif di Lyon

Demi mendapatkan menit bermain yang konsisten, ia akhirnya mengambil keputusan besar untuk pindah sementara ke Prancis selama enam bulan.

"It wasn’t difficult to go to Lyon. In the end, God told me I had to go, and I went.

I wasn’t afraid. It has been one of the best decisions of my life.

I needed to play. I’ve been able to score goals, provide assists and play a lot of minutes," jelas Endrick.
