Real Madrid's new manager Xabi Alonso - who has yet to be announced by the club - will start working soon. Real Madrid play their last match under Carlo Ancelotti on Saturday, against Real Sociedad at home.
Real Madrid are already missing Jude Bellingham due to suspension, and they will also miss him when he finally gets his shoulder operated on after the upcoming inaugural Club World Cup, which will be the first few weeks of Xabi Alonso's tenure.
He will miss up to three months of action, but he is not the only one missing from the squad now.
Alonso's tenure has started in a weird way, as, combining Bellingham's injury with this new one seems unfortunate.
Real Madrid starlet Endrick will miss the Club World Cup
According to an injury report by Real Madrid, Endrick has a hamstring issue that will be worked on by Real Madrid's medical team. Journalists suggest it will make him miss two months of action, ruling him out of the Club World Cup.
Endrick has not played much, but these last few games, and the Club World Cup under a new coach, were his chance to get a proper and much-needed run-in with the team. He was already playing games ever since Vinicius Jr's injury.
He was one of the only few players who had not been injured all season, but just before the last game, Endrick has now taken himself off that list.
According to Jose Luis Sanchez, Endrick suffered this injury in the second half against Sevilla on Sunday, which means there are only two attackers remaining to start the final match of this La Liga season and Ancelotti's tenure: Kylian Mbappe and Brahim Diaz.
Ancelotti might start a Castilla player in Endrick's place, or go for a midfield quartet of Dani Ceballos, Fede Valverde, Arda Guler and Luka Modric.
It is not ideal for Alonso to have these two things to deal with, but he will have to find a workaround to the problem.
