Real Madrid’s on-loan prodigy, Endrick, has publicly come to the defense of his future teammate, Kylian Mbappé.
Mbappé has recently been a central figure in Spanish capital’s media attention, not for his on-field performance, but for his off-pitch activities.
While sidelined with an injury, Mbappé took a vacation on a yacht with his partner, a move that drew sharp criticism from some Real Madrid supporters.
This backlash occurred shortly after Real Madrid’s exit from the Champions League, which extinguished their hopes for silverware this season.
Many fans considered Mbappé’s actions to be insensitive given the team’s circumstances, leading to a significant negative reaction towards the striker.
In a recent interview with SoFoot, Endrick, who is currently playing in France with Lyon, was asked about the situation surrounding the French international.
The young Brazilian expressed his unwavering support, stating, “I don’t care what people say about Mbappé. I hope he wins the Golden Boot again. What I see is that he’s helping Real Madrid by scoring a lot of goals.”
