Endrick has claimed that his Real Madrid team-mate Antonio Rüdiger, never praises him.
The Brazilian forward revealed this after scoring twice in the 5-2 win over Celta Vigo in the Copa del Rey on Thursday night.
Madrid survived a scare in the last-16 tie at the Bernabéu after the visitors fought back from 2-0 down to draw level in the 91st minute.
But Carlo Ancelotti's men scored three times in extra time to seal their passage into the quarter-finals.
Endrick has now praised Rüdiger for guiding him through his goal drought, dedicating his brace to the German defender.
"I keep working every day," Endrick told Real Madrid TV.
"My two goals are for Antonio Rüdiger. He knows what he does for me every day. He never praises me, and that's a good thing! He tells me what to do, to score, to run, to keep fighting.
"Yesterday in training he gave me a tough game. I was thinking about it at home, and he's a great person. The goals are for him."
Endrick began the campaign well, opening his account in LaLiga and the Champions League.
But the 18-year-old hadn't found the net since September 17 and has played a total of just 83 league minutes this campaign.
