Endrick to miss Copa America after injury in Ligue 1
Updated:2026-03-12 06:34 Views:159Endrick, the Brazilian footballer who is expected to make his debut for Manchester United this season, has been ruled out of the Copa America due to an injury he sustained while playing for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the French Ligue 1.
The 22-year-old forward was forced off during PSG's match against Bordeaux on Sunday with an ankle injury and has since been diagnosed with a ligament tear. He will undergo surgery next week and is likely to be sidelined for several months, which means he won't be able to play for Brazil at the Copa America, which takes place from July 9-26.
Endrick's absence from the tournament is a major blow for Brazil, as they are heavily favored to win the competition. The team is currently ranked third in the world by FIFA and have won the Copa America twice before, in 1997 and 2007.
Despite the setback, Endrick has expressed his determination to recover quickly and return to full fitness as soon as possible. He has also stated that he wants to contribute to Manchester United's success this season, and hopes to regain his place in the team once he returns from injury.
In conclusion, Endrick's injury puts him out of action for the Copa America, but it doesn't mean he can't still have a successful season at Manchester United. His recovery time may be long, but he remains focused on getting back into form and contributing to the team's success.
