Endrick has reportedly decided whether he will attempt to instigate a short-term transfer away from Real Madrid.
During the summer, the teenager finally completed his €72m move from Palmeiras to the Bernabeu having agreed to sign before the age of 18.
Ahead of his arrival, the versatile attacker was expected to be provided with regular game time by Carlo Ancelotti, even when faced with extra competition from Kylian Mbappe.
However, the 18-year-old has instead spent a prolonged period on the substitutes' bench, leading to speculation regarding his future at Los Blancos.
According to Marca, Endrick has already reached a decision as to whether he will look to move to another club.

Despite seeing his action limited by Ancelotti, Endrick is said to be of the opinion that he would prefer to fight for his place in the starting lineup.
As it stands, he has been provided with just one start and 13 substitute outings in La Liga and the Champions League, his solitary start coming in the latter competition.
Just 151 minutes have been accumulated in total, yet just five substitute appearances have come since his start versus Lille on October 2.
The report suggests that Endrick feels that he can convince Ancelotti to provide him with more opportunities between now and the end of the season.
That is despite the stakes having been raised in both competitions, Real sitting just two points adrift of La Liga leaders Barcelona with a game in hand and the Spanish giants down in 24th place in the Champions League standings.

Is more game time a realistic possibility?
Even with Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Kylian Mbappe all spending varying periods on the sidelines this season, Endrick has still struggled to make an impression.
The general consensus is that he is only being used when Real are either chasing a game or a contest is already over from a competitive standpoint.
When Endrick started against Lille, he was ineffective alongside Vinicius Junior in a front two and was withdrawn when Real were trailing 1-0 after 57 minutes.
While he will likely start games in the Copa del Rey, only injuries are likely to lead to featuring from the opening whistle in major competitions.
