Real Madrid set XXL €60 million price tag that chills Roma and Milan
Real Madrid have set a price tag of more than €60 million for Brazilian striker Endrick, a figure that is already dampening interest from AS Roma and AC Milan as the winter transfer window looms.
New twist and Italian interest
Endrick's transfer saga has taken a new turn as the winter window draws near. Both AS Roma and AC Milan have been reported as interested in the 17‑year‑old Brazilian striker. Earlier on Tuesday reports suggested Endrick was preparing to leave Real Madrid and that a suitor seemed ready. The latest reports also indicate that the case now includes the first indications of conditions for a permanent move.
Real Madrid's firm stance and price tag
Real Madrid have made clear they are not prepared to sell the Brazilian, insisting his price would now exceed €60 million. The club has explicitly set the price bar above €60 million. According to Actu Foot, citing Mario Cortegana, more than €60 million would be required to persuade Real Madrid to release Endrick this winter. That sum is considered sufficient to cool a number of potential suitors.
Endrick's January choice tests minutes against Real Madrid future
Both Real Madrid and manager José Mourinho have expressed a desire to retain the striker. This confirms the club is not pushing the player out, a view also shared by Mourinho. While the door is not completely shut, only an exceptionally high offer could alter the situation. Such a requirement complicates Endrick's plans if he seeks continuity in the second half of the season.
A permanent departure would demand a substantial investment, yet Real Madrid remain in a strong position and face no obligation to sell. AS Roma and AC Milan are now cited as new pretenders in the saga. The two Italian clubs are monitoring the situation, but no concrete offer or advanced negotiations have been reported. The price demanded therefore represents a serious obstacle for both Serie A sides.
Mourinho blocks Endrick's January move – stays at Real
An amount exceeding €60 million would require a major financial effort and would rank Endrick among the biggest winter market investments. The development shifts the focus from merely choosing a destination or playing time to Real Madrid's firm intention to keep the player and a valuation that limits the pool of buyers. While Italian interest widens the list of pretenders, Madrid's high demands fundamentally change the nature of any potential deal. Unless an offer surpasses €60 million or Real Madrid changes its stance, Endrick is likely to remain at the club for the remainder of the season.
