Real Madrid forward Endrick is actively considering a January departure from the Santiago Bernabéu as frustration mounts over his severe lack of playing time.
Endrick Ready to Leave Real Madrid in Search of Minutes
The Brazilian youngster has grown increasingly impatient with his limited role under manager José Mourinho and is now open to seeking a fresh challenge when the winter transfer window opens.
Endrick returned to the Spanish capital following an impressive loan spell with Olympique Lyonnais last season.
During his time in France, he dazzled with 16 direct goal contributions in just 21 appearances, raising expectations that he would finally earn a prominent role in Madrid’s first team.
However, those expectations have not materialized. An early injury setback disrupted his momentum, and since returning to full fitness, Endrick has played only four competitive minutes.
He currently sits behind Kylian Mbappé and summer signing Carlos Espí in Mourinho’s centre-forward pecking order, leaving him as a distant third choice.
According to reports from Marca, the 18-year-old is once again eyeing a move in the winter transfer window.
Roma, who nearly signed him last summer, have re-emerged as a serious potential destination.
The Italian club remains keen to secure his services and could offer the regular first-team football Endrick desperately craves.
For now, Endrick must decide whether to fight for his place in Madrid or pursue a temporary exit to continue his development elsewhere.
With the January window approaching, his future remains one of the most closely watched storylines in European football.
