Risk management: Real Madrid determined to avoid Vitor Roque situation with new signing | OneFootball

Real Madrid have wasted no time integrating their latest prodigy, Endrick, into the first-team squad.

The Brazilian wonderkid, who turned 18 on July 21, has already shortened his vacation to expedite his acclimatization to the Spanish capital and impress Carlo Ancelotti during pre-season.

Real Madrid keen on avoiding a Vitor Roque situation

This proactive approach stands in stark contrast to the situation of Vitor Roque at Barcelona, a cautionary tale for the Merengues.

Endrick’s precocious talent and star status in his homeland have earned him a direct path to the first team, bypassing the usual developmental stage with Real Madrid Castilla.

According to Diario AS, the club are determined to avoid repeating the mistakes made by Barcelona with Vitor Roque, who struggled for playing time under Xavi Hernandez.

Despite his immense potential, the young Brazilian has been relegated to the fringes of the first team and is now reportedly seeking a way out of Camp Nou.

Real Madrid’s strategy for Endrick involves a careful balance between nurturing his talent and integrating him into the first-team squad.

Ancelotti will have a crucial role to play in the player’s development, providing him with opportunities to showcase his skills while managing his workload effectively.

The physical prowess of the young Brazilian, often compared to legendary Real Madrid stars Roberto Carlos and Ronaldo Nazario, will be honed under the guidance of fitness coach Antonio Pintus.

As Endrick embarks on his pre-season with the Merengues, all eyes will be on his progress. With the support of the club, coaching staff, and his own determination, Real Madrid are confident that they can avoid the pitfalls experienced by Barcelona and successfully nurture their latest young star.
