Real Madrid Confidencial Florentino already knows what to do with Gonzalo, Endrick's injury has made everything more complicated
The President makes a decision regarding Gonzalo and everything is clearer than ever for the youth academy player
The Merengue season is set to be very different from what we saw last year, considering the reinforcements and new names. One of those under the club's spotlight is Gonzalo, whose continuity in the campaign had been in doubt. However, according to what Defensa Central has learned, Florentino Pérez has decided to secure the homegrown white player.
Obviously, this is a decision that many Madridists support because of what he has been able to show in the team after the Club World Cup. Now, under Xabi's guidance, this campaign is expected to be highly significant for him to stand out even more. Still, it won't be a simple task with players like Mbappé and Endrick hot on his heels or even ahead of him.
Gonzalo has an opportunity
This player already gave people plenty to talk about in Castilla last season and even in the first team. Let's remember that he scored a crucial goal in the Copa del Rey for the white team in the final minutes. But his best version appeared in the Club World Cup, where he was decisive in every way.
He was the tournament's top scorer with 4 goals in 6 matches (4 in 6), plus one assist, and he participated in every game except the semifinals. This solidified his place in the first team for this tournament and earned him a spot for the next season. Although his performance will have to carve out a place for him in what will clearly be tough competition, mainly with Endrick.
The Brazilian also managed to show a lot with little time last season, scoring 7 goals and 1 assist in less than 984 yds. (900 min.). For this reason and with his physical potential, both are expected to compete for that second spot in the attack.
He has everything to succeed
With this in mind and Florentino's decision, he has everything to earn a place and will fight to be Alonso's chosen one. Moreover, Madridism trusts the process of homegrown players a lot, especially with this level of performance. All the best and may it be the best for the team.
