Real Madrid forward Endrick has left open the possibility of leaving the Spanish giants during the January transfer window as uncertainty continues over his playing time under manager José Mourinho.
The 20-year-old Brazilian has struggled to secure regular opportunities this season, prompting speculation that another loan move could help him gain valuable first-team experience.
According to reports attributed to Spanish newspaper AS, Endrick has yet to make a final decision about his future and intends to assess his opportunities at the Santiago Bernabéu before considering a temporary departure.
Italian clubs AS Roma and AC Milan have reportedly expressed interest in signing the youngster on loan when the transfer window reopens.
Roma came close to securing his services during the summer, but Mourinho intervened, insisting that the forward remained an important part of his plans.
Despite those assurances, Endrick’s involvement has been limited by competition for attacking positions and an injury that disrupted his preparations for the campaign.
His situation improved during Real Madrid’s Champions League encounter against Roma on October 14, when he came off the bench and scored a crucial equaliser in a dramatic 4-3 comeback victory.
Speaking after the match, Endrick acknowledged that his future remained uncertain, indicating that he would accept either staying at Madrid or leaving in January.
The Brazilian also expressed appreciation for Mourinho’s support and reaffirmed his commitment to working hard whenever selected.
Mourinho, however, has consistently opposed suggestions that Endrick needs another loan spell.
The Portuguese manager has praised the youngster’s potential and maintained that he can develop into an important player for Real Madrid.
Nevertheless, reports suggest that Mourinho could reconsider his position if Endrick ultimately believes a temporary move would better serve his development.
The forward previously enjoyed a productive loan spell with French club Lyon, where regular playing opportunities helped him regain momentum and strengthen his position in Brazil’s national team.
With Roma and Milan monitoring developments, Endrick’s future could become a significant talking point ahead of the January transfer window.
For now, the Brazilian remains focused on earning more opportunities at Real Madrid, while the club has made no official announcement concerning a possible departure.
His involvement in upcoming domestic and European fixtures could influence whether he stays to compete for a place or seeks regular football elsewhere.
