No Club World Cup for Real Madrid's Endrick after hamstring injury

Madrid, May 22 (UNI) Real Madrid forward Endrick has suffered a muscle injury that is likely to rule him out of this summer's FIFA Club World Cup.
"Following tests carried out on Wednesday on our player Endrick by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the conjoint tendon in his right hamstring,"
informed the club.
As usual, Real Madrid did not provide a timeline for the 18-year-old's return. The club, which signed Endrick last summer, stated only that "his recovery will be assessed," though the severity of the injury makes his participation in the Club World Cup highly unlikely.
Real Madrid is set to debut in the tournament on June 18 against Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal, followed by matches against Mexican club Pachuca on June 22 and Austria's RB Salzburg on June 27 in the group stage.
The injury brings a premature end to what has been a slightly disappointing debut season for Endrick, who has been behind Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr in the attacking pecking order.
Endrick scored just one goal in 22 La Liga appearances--19 of those as a substitute--but found more success in cup competitions, netting five times in the Copa del Rey and once in the Champions League.
