Real Madrid may soon rely on former manager Carlo Ancelotti to help steer their summer transfer dealings.
Now Brazil’s head coach, Ancelotti could influence the fate of young stars like Rodrygo and Endrick as he builds his 2026 World Cup squad.
Rodrygo’s future has been the subject of transfer speculation. Though a regular with Brazil, he wasn’t selected in Ancelotti’s first national team squad.
His exclusion follows a spell on the sidelines at Madrid, raising questions about his long-term role under the new club setup.

Endrick Felipe, the teenage sensation, is also in focus. Real Madrid reportedly want him to go out on loan this summer, believing he needs more consistent minutes.
After relapsing from a muscle injury, he’ll miss the start of the season and remain behind Kylian Mbappe and Gonzalo Garcia Torres in the striker hierarchy.

Sources say the coach supports the idea of Endrick gaining regular playing time elsewhere to remain in top condition and relevant to Brazil’s long-term plans.
Despite Real Madrid’s interest in a loan, Endrick has expressed his desire to stay.
He and his team are cautious, recalling the failed loans of Reinier Jesus and Luka Jovic, and inspired instead by the successful path of Vinicius Junior, who fought for his place and won it.
