As reigning Champions League winners, Real Madrid is preparing for the new season with several pre-season friendlies, including a highly anticipated match against AC Milan on July 31, and Carlo Ancelotti would have already defined the front line.
According to Spain’s Diario AS, Carlo Ancelotti has already decided on his attacking trio for the friendly against Milan, featuring the young Brazilian star Endrick. Joining him in the attack will be Arda Güler and Brahim Diaz, forming a dynamic trio for the match against the Italian team.
This match against Milan will be particularly significant as it marks Endrick’s debut in a Real Madrid jersey. The Brazilian forward turned 18 on Sunday, making him eligible to officially join the Spanish club.

Endrick was signed from Palmeiras in 2022 and has been eagerly awaiting his 18th birthday to make the official move to Real Madrid. His formal introduction to the fans is scheduled for July 27 at the Santiago Bernabeu, where he will be warmly welcomed by the Madrid faithful.
