Real Madrid's promising 20-year-old midfielder, Endrick, has Milan as the frontrunner for a potential January transfer according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The youngster, who has only seen limited playing time so far, is keen on a move to his preferred destination. Unusually, he will need to wonder why he was kept out of the team by José Mourinho during the summer transfer window.
Milan will have to compete with other clubs like Roma and Aston Villa for the young talent's signature. However, Endrick's agent, Gerry Cardinale, holds an advantage due to his long-standing relationship with the player. Should a loan deal be considered, Milan would not hesitate to turn it into a permanent transfer. The €2.5m-a-year wages are not a concern, but convincing Real Madrid to let the player go will be a challenge, considering the amount they paid for him two years ago.
Endrick needs to leave Real Madrid, as development under José Mourinho is not going to happen on the sidelines. Milan is a club that values experienced players who can deliver in the present, and Endrick's placement at Real Madrid might not be the ideal environment for his growth.
