After competing with Brazil’s national team, Endrick, a 17-year-old striker, chose to skip his rest day and immediately resumed training with Palmeiras.
His swift return emphasizes his strong commitment and professionalism.
Endrick stood out during the Pre-Olympic tournament, scoring two goals and making two assists across seven matches.
His efforts were significant despite Brazil not qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Missing Palmeiras’ early season games, including the Supercopa do Brasil final, Endrick showed his keenness to aid his team upon return.
Palmeiras has scheduled medical checks to assess Endrick’s condition, aiming to reintegrate him into team dynamics quickly.
Coach Abel Ferreira trusts in Endrick’s ability to rebound from international disappointments and is cautious about reintroducing him into the game lineup, considering the competition for forward positions.
The team is preparing for forthcoming matches, with players involved in the recent game against Santo André undergoing recovery protocols.
Others engaged in ball drills, preparing for the next encounters against São Bernardo and the anticipated clash with Corinthians.
Endrick’s decision to return to training early after the pre-Olympic tournament signals his determination to contribute significantly to Palmeiras.
His actions demonstrate his potential on the field and his admirable character, as he aims to play a pivotal role in Palmeiras’ ongoing season.
