Milan and Roma chase Endrick as Real weigh January loan
Brazilian striker Endrick could depart Real Madrid on loan in January, with Serie A sides Milan and Roma circling. Carlo Ancelotti praised him, saying “Vai ser um jogador importante para a Seleção no futuro”, while José Mourinho insisted he counts on the forward.
Milan keep Endrick at top of target list
According to the Italian site Calciomercato, Milan pursued the 20‑year‑old in August, negotiating for two weeks before José Mourinho blocked the move. The club now ranks Endrick highest on its attack‑reinforcement list, viewing him as a capable second striker or a reference forward.
Calciomercato also notes that Roma have entered the race, ready to compete should Real Madrid free the player in the January window. The Italian capital club sees Endrick as a valuable addition to its frontline.
The loan can only materialise if Florentino Pérez authorises a temporary release, the report adds. Real Madrid’s hierarchy must therefore weigh the striker’s development against squad depth.
Nervousness at Real Madrid puts Florentino Pérez under pressure
Endrick returned to Real Madrid this season after spending the first half of 2026 on loan at Lyon, yet he still seeks regular minutes under Mourinho’s guidance.
Real Madrid are re‑evaluating his future, with a new loan reportedly on the radar, according to the same Calciomercato source.
The juxtaposition of Real’s uncertainty and the determined interest from Milan and Roma underscores a pivotal month ahead for the 20‑year‑old Brazilian.
