Brazilian striker Endrick has accepted his limited playing time at the 2026 World Cup, expressing full trust in head coach Carlo Ancelotti's tactical decisions.
The 19-year-old Real Madrid forward has yet to start a match during the tournament, serving as a substitute against Haiti, Scotland, and Japan after being an unused substitute in Brazil's opener against Morocco.

"He won't do what's best for me or for Endrick," Endrick said, emphasizing that Ancelotti prioritizes the collective squad over any individual player.
Endrick highlighted that Ancelotti coached him during his first season at Real Madrid before advising a successful loan move to Olympique Lyon for the second half of the 2025-2026 season.
"He's not afraid; he does what he thinks is right, and things just happen.
It seems like God is watching over him, and he's inspired because everything Carlo does just works out," Endrick added.
Ancelotti recently praised the forward's positive attitude, particularly after Endrick played 45 minutes to help secure a 2-1 victory over Japan on Monday.
"When the coach tells me to do something, I won't look back — I'll just do whatever he asks," Endrick stated.
Members of the Brazilian national team setup have highly praised the teenager's maturity, according to reports from MARCA via Madrid Zone.
Team insiders described Endrick as an intelligent and emotionally stable young man who has secured the inner calm needed to manage high-pressure environments.
