Over the past few weeks, there have been many rumors about the future of the 19-year-old Brazilian, who has not had much playing time under Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, and now appears set to play a smaller role under Spanish coach Xabi Alonso.

On top of this bad luck, which befell the player after he was not selected as a starter in the squad of Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, he also suffered from multiple injuries that prevented him from being fit throughout last season as well.

The player is now suffering from an injury that will keep him out of three matches at the start of the new season.

When will the player return?

The highly anticipated return of Brazilian phenom Endrick has been pushed to September following complications in his recovery from a persistent tendon injury. The 17-year-old, who last featured in competitive action in May, suffered an untimely setback during his rehabilitation last month - just as he was preparing to join new manager Alonso's preseason preparations.

This latest development means the teenage prodigy will miss the entire preseason period and likely make his season debut after the first international break. Club medical staff remain cautious with the young striker's recovery timeline, prioritizing his long-term fitness over rushing his return to the pitch.

The injury comes at a particularly challenging time for Endrick, who was expected to play a key role in Alonso's new project this season. His absence leaves a noticeable gap in the team's attacking options as they prepare for their season opener.

Fans worldwide will now have to wait until at least September to see the young Brazilian back in action, when he hopes to finally put his injury woes behind him and resume his meteoric rise in the football world.
