Brazilian prodigy Endrick, who joined Real Madrid this summer from Palmeiras in a deal potentially worth over €60 million, is reportedly considering a loan move in the upcoming winter transfer window, Soccernet.football understands.
Despite high expectations surrounding his arrival, the 18-year-old has struggled to secure consistent playing time amid fierce competition within the squad.
The arrival of Kylian Mbappe, along with the established presence of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, Arda Güler, and Brahim Diaz, has significantly limited Endrick’s opportunities to make an impact.
While he managed to score a goal after coming on as a late substitute against Real Valladolid, this moment of brilliance did not lead to more minutes on the pitch in subsequent matches.
Endrick was again brought off the bench in the 86th minute against Las Palmas, but this time, he could not replicate his earlier success.
Given the current situation, Endrick does not rule out the possibility of seeking a loan move if his playing time remains scarce by the winter, according to AS.
A first assessment of his situation will be made around Christmas, with a second evaluation planned for the summer.

The young forward’s primary goal is to secure a regular spot in the team, but with competition this fierce, a loan move may offer him the opportunity to gain valuable experience and continue his development.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti had earlier cautioned Endrick about the challenging competition he would face this season.
While Vinicius and Rodrygo managed to establish themselves without leaving the Santiago Bernabéu, Endrick’s path might require a different approach as he looks to carve out his place in one of the world’s most competitive teams.
