Juventus aims to secure Real Madrid’s young Brazilian forward Endrick on a season-long loan. Real’s new coach Xabi Alonso values Endrick as backup for Kylian Mbappe and will only agree if another striker like Ante Budimir joins Madrid. Endrick, 18, signed a six-year deal in July 2024 but saw limited playtime under Ancelotti, appearing in 22 games mostly as a substitute. Juventus plans this move amid striker departures and uncertainty.

Currently on the radar of top European clubs is Real Madrid’s young Brazilian talent, Endrick, who joined the Spanish giants from Palmeiras in July 2024 on a six-year contract. At just 18 years old, Endrick has struggled for regular playing time under former manager Carlo Ancelotti due to competition from established forwards like Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr., and the arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

So far, he has appeared in 22 matches, mostly as a substitute. Juventus is leading the race to secure Endrick on a season-long loan, especially with Dusan Vlahovic likely to leave and the current forwards Arkadiusz Milik and Randal Kolo Muani underperforming. However, Real Madrid’s new manager Xabi Alonso views Endrick as Mbappe’s backup and may not agree to loan him out unless Real signs another striker, possibly Ante Budimir, before the transfer window closes.

Other clubs showing interest include Eintracht Frankfurt, RB Leipzig, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain. Endrick’s speed and style suit Alonso’s system, and with Rodrygo expected to leave, the young Brazilian could see increased playing time next season. Internationally, Endrick has earned 14 caps for Brazil and scored three goals. The coming months will decide if he stays at Real Madrid or gains valuable experience on loan elsewhere.
