Ronaldo’s Real Valladolid set to rescue Endrick from ‘garbage minutes’ at Real Madrid in January

Teenage Brazilian sensation Endrick, who joined Real Madrid from Palmeiras last summer for €47.5 million (£39.5m/$50m), may soon find a temporary way out of his challenging start at the Santiago Bernabeu, Soccernet.football reports.

Spanish reports suggest that Real Valladolid, a club owned by Madrid legend Ronaldo Nazario, is considering a January loan move to bring the 18-year-old winger on board.

For Endrick, who has struggled to earn significant minutes, the chance to play regularly could offer a timely solution to his frustrations.

Real Valladolid, currently battling to stay clear of the relegation zone, is in dire need of attacking reinforcement.

With only 10 goals scored in their first 13 La Liga games, Valladolid sit among the league’s lowest scorers, ahead of only Valencia and Getafe. The injection of Endrick’s youthful energy and skill could be the boost they need to climb out of their precarious position.

According to Spanish outlet SuperDeporte, Endrick is increasingly frustrated with what he reportedly calls “garbage minutes” — brief appearances primarily as a late-game substitute when the outcome has already been decided.

Despite his limited game time, Endrick has managed to make an impact, scoring his first La Liga goal for Real Madrid against none other than Real Valladolid.

Endrick’s situation is further complicated by his omission from the Brazilian national team for the current international break.

His next opportunity to feature for Real Madrid will come after the break when Los Blancos face Leganes on November 24.

However, the potential January move to Valladolid could allow Endrick to gain crucial match experience and establish himself in La Liga.

For Ronaldo’s Valladolid, securing Endrick’s loan would not only bolster their squad but could also serve as a morale boost as they seek to escape the drop zone.
