Goodbye Real Madrid! Alonso prefers youth training stars, 19-year-old Enderrick faces leaving the team

After Alonso takes charge of Real Madrid, he hopes to give more opportunities to the new stars in the team's youth training. Gonzalo Garcia is the beneficiary. The youth forward performed well in the Club World Cup and is now a regular member of the first team. Although many teams wanted to buy him, Real Madrid's management decided to keep him in the team. Real Madrid believe that Gonzalo Garcia's contribution to the team is worth retaining, and it also sends a clear message: Brazilian Ndrick has been "eliminated" from the team.

Although Gonzalo Garcia doesn't start every weekend, the statistics are convincing: he has played more official game minutes than Enderrick this season. In the summer of 2024, Real Madrid introduced Endrick for 47.5 million euros, but he did not get any playing time under Xabi Alonso. The situation puts him in a delicate position in the dressing room, while Gonzalo Garcia gets more chances.

In this round of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Getafe 1-0. When a substitution was made in the second half, it was Gonzalo Garcia who came on, and the 19-year-old Endrick once again spent the entire game on the bench. According to Western media reports after the game, Endrick was very angry and kicked the water bottle when he learned that he could not play during the game. Alonso was not happy about this.

Despite his great potential, Endrick has been reduced to a bench in Real Madrid. So far this season, Real Madrid has played 11 games in all competitions, but the 19-year-old Brazilian forward Endrick still has 0 playing time. In fact, Endrick has not played in an official game for 5 months.

It is only a matter of time before Enderrick leaves the team, and this is not only due to the arrival of Mbappe or Alonso's coaching philosophy. The person directly responsible for this script change was Gonzalo Garcia, who convinced the coach with his goals, attitude and competitive mentality to take the spot away from Enderrick. The academy product knows how to seize opportunities in crucial moments, make an impact and send the signal that he deserves more playing time, so now he is the winner of this competition.

Endrick's possible destinations are beginning to emerge: several European clubs are interested in the Brazilian, knowing that he needs playing time and a starring role. If the script stays the same, a January loan or sale could become a reality. Meanwhile, Gonzalo Garcia faced his moment with calmness and determination, knowing that he had passed a tough test - playing football every day at Real Madrid.

In short, Real Madrid decided to bet on its own people. Gonzalo Garcia has earned the trust and an advantage in this internal competition. Ndrick faces a crossroads: either prove himself worthy of Real Madrid or consider a new path away from Los Blancos.
