Vinicius, key figure in Endrick's decision: he's the reason why he isn't leaving

The most recent decision regarding the club's forward line is that Endrick will remain with the Merengue squad. For some, it would be necessary to let this player leave so he could get important minutes at another institution. However, according to what Defensa Central has learned, the decision is rooted in Vinícius's journey with the squad.

This Brazilian player is one of the main references not only for the Merengue squad but also for the youth of his country. This is exactly what this young South American figure shows, who, at 19 years old, wants to fight for a spot. Although he knows he will have a very tough job and journey ahead, as he will have to earn his place against players like Mbappé and now Gonzalo.

He wants to stay because of Vinícius

The arrival of the current number 7 at Real Madrid wasn't easy, since from the beginning he was heavily criticized and ridiculed by the media. In addition, on the field he suffered assaults, which even included bites from opponents. A media campaign against him developed until it finally exploded in 2021.

Today, he is one of the main references not only at Real Madrid but in the world of soccer in general. He also seems to be an inspiration for players like Endrick, who see him as a role model for such a great institution as this one. That's why he wants to fight for a spot on the best team in the world, despite what this may mean in terms of competition.

The player seems to trust his performance and, despite having played just under 930 yds. (850 m) last season, he has faith in the new coach. Meanwhile, Alonso also seems to trust him if he accepts the player's decision to stay.

It's clear to him

What is clear is that the Brazilian player knows exactly what his goals are for the present and future. He will fight for a spot no matter who the competition is and will seek to become a reference point on the best team in the world.
