Endrick says Bellingham and Alexander-Arnold called daily during Real Madrid struggles

Endrick has spoken about a testing spell at Real Madrid, saying Jude Bellingham and Trent Alexander‑Arnold called him every day to lift his spirits. The teenage forward credited their support with helping him rebuild confidence ahead of a six-month loan at Lyon, while admitting he still finds them hard to understand.

Having returned to Madrid after his productive time in Ligue 1, Endrick said the first year at a club with players such as Modric, Vinicius and Rodrygo is always tough. “Bellingham calls me every day. When I was feeling down, he’d pick me up and we’d talk. He helped me a lot.

Trent too. They’re very approachable players,” he said, adding: “I try to learn from them, including English, but it’s impossible to understand them.” The move to Lyon proved a turning point. “It wasn’t difficult to go to Lyon. In the end, God told me I had to go, and I went.
