Endrick Maps a Real Madrid Exit Plan
Endrick, the 19-year-old Brazilian forward at Real Madrid, has sketched a plan to leave the Spanish giants.
He joined in 2024 from Palmeiras for around €48 million and showed flashes under Carlo Ancelotti, before Xabi Alonso took over and began reshaping the squad, sidelining Endrick from his plans.
Since Alonso's arrival, Endrick has not appeared in any match, as the Spaniard favors other attackers such as Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo, and the young Gonzalo García and Ibrahim Díaz, who offer alternative attacking options.
Endrick, 19, is now considering moves to one of Europe's top leagues or to a Portuguese club like Benfica, Sporting CP or Porto, according to ESPN Brazil's reporting.
ESPN Brazil adds that Endrick would also prefer a move in the second half of the 2024-25 season, ideally to a club competing in the UEFA Champions League, with an attacking style and title ambitions in the country.
At 19, Endrick would also favor joining a team that plays an offensive game and aims to win the league in his homeland.
Clásico Preview: Madrid vs Barcelona
Barcelona sit second in La Liga with 22 points from 9 games, including 7 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, with 24 goals scored and 10 against. Real Madrid lead with 24 points from 8 wins and 1 loss, scoring 20 and conceding 9.
In Europe, Barcelona are riding high after a 6-1 win over Olympiakos in the Champions League, and with the return of key players and supportive fans, Barça head into the Clasico with boosted morale, while Madrid aim to capitalize on home advantage to stay top.
The Clasico remains a global spectacle, with the two sides separated by only a couple of points, enhancing the intensity of a fixture that sits at the heart of European football's history.
Madrid's league campaign began with six straight wins before a 2-5 derby loss to Atlético Madrid, followed by victories over Villarreal and Getafe. In Europe, Madrid have won three consecutive group-stage matches under Alonso, beating Marseille, Kairat Almaty, and Juventus.
Barcelona began their second season under coach Hans Flick; results have been mixed, with wins over Mallorca and Levante, a draw with Rayo Vallecano, a heavy win over Valencia, and progress in Europe with a 2-1 away win at Newcastle, a 2-1 home defeat to PSG, and a 6-1 win over Olympiakos.
Punchline 1: If Endrick leaves, Madrid will need a GPS to locate their own goalposts again—rumor season is real estate with zero returns.
Punchline 2: In football, the transfer window is like a bad romance: always promising a future, never delivering a guarantee.
