- Endrick is prepared to leave Real Madrid in January if his playing time does not improve
- The Brazilian striker has played only four minutes this season under José Mourinho
- AC Milan, Aston Villa and AS Roma are monitoring his situation ahead of a potential loan move in the winter transfer window
January Departure Now a Serious Possibility
AC Milan are interested in signing Real Madrid striker Endrick, with the Brazilian already prepared to leave the Spanish club in January. A temporary move is being considered, and the situation is becoming increasingly relevant because the youngster has featured for only four minutes so far this season under José Mourinho.
If his circumstances at Real Madrid remain unchanged, another loan switch – similar to last season – looks more likely than ever. Endrick previously had a spell at Lyon, where he demonstrated that regular minutes are crucial to his development and that, when given opportunities, he is capable of showing his talent.

Milan Approval
The reported loan deal has been approved by coach Ruben Amorim. Although Gonçalo Ramos is his main striker, Amorim views Endrick as an ideal alternative to the Portuguese frontman.
For Milan, the attraction is clear: Endrick would offer another attacking option during the winter period, while the player would have the chance to secure the match exposure he has lacked at Real Madrid this season.
Aston Villa and AS Roma Also Watching Closely
Milan are not alone in tracking the Brazilian’s situation. In England, Unai Emery’s Aston Villa are also eager to sign Endrick during the winter transfer window. AS Roma are monitoring the situation as well, with all three clubs looking at a potential loan move.
| Club | Reported Position | Potential Move |
|---|---|---|
| AC Milan | Want to sign Endrick | Loan in the winter transfer window |
| Aston Villa | Unai Emery’s side are eager to sign the Brazilian | Potential January loan move |
| AS Roma | Monitoring his situation | Potential loan move |
| Real Madrid | Endrick has played only four minutes this season under José Mourinho | Could allow a loan if the situation does not change |
Limited Minutes Driving the Market
The central issue remains Endrick’s lack of involvement at Real Madrid. With just four minutes played this season under José Mourinho, the Brazilian’s path to more regular football appears uncertain. That limited role has opened the door for AC Milan, Aston Villa and AS Roma to assess whether a January loan can be completed.
