Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has publicly requested Brazil national team coach Carlo Ancelotti to give young forward Endrick Felipe more playing time during the upcoming international window.
Endrick has struggled for consistent minutes at the club level this season, logging a mere 141 minutes out of roughly 1,500 total team minutes across 16 matches. Following Real Madrid's 3-0 La Liga victory over Valencia—where Endrick made a late substitute appearance—Mourinho addressed the media, stating, "Look at who is going to the Brazil squad with Carlo. Vinicius Junior has to play, and Endrick is there too. If Carlo plays him, I will be grateful."
