Although not yet fit to play, Endrick is officially with Real Madrid in the U.S. as he continues recovering from a thigh injury and could still feature at the FIFA Club World Cup.

The 17-year-old Brazilian striker arrived in the United States on Saturday (June 28) and linked up with his future teammates at Real Madrid’s training base in Palm Beach, Florida. While he hasn’t played since mid-May due to a muscle injury, Endrick’s presence is part of a long-term integration plan as he settles into life with Los Blancos.

Warm Welcome from Real Madrid Stars

Endrick was greeted with excitement by some of the club’s biggest names, including:

  • Vinicius Jr.
  • Kylian Mbappé
  • Jude Bellingham
  • Luka Modric
  • Antonio Rüdiger

And head coach Xabi Alonso, who is eager for the young talent to observe training routines and absorb the tactical dynamics firsthand.

Injury Status: Still in Recovery

Endrick hasn’t played since May 18, when he picked up a right thigh muscle injury against Sevilla in La Liga.

He’s been undergoing rehab with Real Madrid’s medical staff in Spain and now continues treatment in the U.S.

Although officially registered for the Club World Cup, his return to the field depends on significant clinical improvement in the coming days.
