Real Madrid players and Endrick react to José Mourinho

Real Madrid captain Federico Valverde has commented on the team's adjustment to new manager José Mourinho. Valverde noted that while working with Mourinho can be difficult at times, the coach's close relationship with the squad is intended to drive player improvement.

Meanwhile, Brazilian striker Endrick is reportedly considering a loan move to secure more playing time. Following Mourinho's preference for a smaller squad of approximately 20 players, Endrick finds himself as a third option in attack behind Kylian Mbappé and Carlos Espí. Endrick is seeking a club that competes in European competitions, specifically the Champions League. Interest has been expressed by clubs including Roma and Aston Villa.
