Real Madrid: bad news, Endrick is injured

At Real Madrid, Endrick has just hit a minor setback in his pre-season preparations.

The Brazilian international forward is dealing with a muscle overload. Endrick is expected to miss the upcoming match against Schalke scheduled for next Sunday. His absence is currently precautionary, as the Brazilian is hoping to recover in time for the LaLiga opener against Espanyol.

This latest setback comes just as Endrick's future at Real Madrid has become clearer. Previously rumored to be heading out on loan, with AS Roma and Aston Villa notably interested, the Brazilian has ultimately been retained by José Mourinho.
