Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti has spoken about the bright future of Brazilian youngster Endrick, urging the player to take his time in making the right career decisions while reminding everyone that the 19-year-old still has many opportunities ahead of him.
Softfootball earlier reported that Endrick has prioritized a move to Olympique Lyon despite interest from several Premier League clubs, a decision believed to be influenced by the promise of more consistent playing time, which would aid his development.
Brazil recently completed their Asian tour during the last international break, suffering a surprise 3-2 defeat to Japan, a result that has since sparked conversations about the team’s reliance on youth and its readiness for the next World Cup cycle.
According to Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle , Ancelotti was full of praise and admiration for the youngster, Romano posted:
Endrick needs to talk to Real Madrid to find out what’s best for him… he’s very young. This won’t be his last World Cup. He can play in the 2026 World Cup because he has quality, but he could also be in the 2030 World Cup, or 2034, and maybe even 2038.
The Italian coach’s remarks highlight both the immense potential and the patience required in nurturing Endrick’s career, as the young forward continues to attract global attention for his talent and maturity beyond his years.
With his next career move looming, Endrick’s development will be closely watched, and many believe that under the right mentorship and environment, he could become one of the defining players of his generation.
