Milan’s interest in Endrick dates back some time. The story began in the summer, when the Rossoneri were looking for a striker with his characteristics and contacted Real Madrid to find out whether a deal might be possible.
How much does Endrick earn at Real Madrid?
For now, however, Endrick has played just under ten minutes for Real Madrid, coming on in the league match against Elche, which ended in a 3-2 win thanks to a stoppage-time goal from Espì, who had also come off the bench late in the game.
If the situation does not change, the Brazilian striker could consider a move, at which point it remains to be seen whether Milan will revive their interest. The 2006-born forward’s contract with Real Madrid runs until June 2030, and his salary is around €2.5 million.
The main obstacle could be finding a deal structure that suits both clubs. The Spanish side would prefer to let him leave only on a straight loan, as they did with Lyon a year ago, while the Rossoneri could propose a more complex arrangement involving an option or obligation to buy, potentially with a buy-back clause for Real Madrid. This was reported by Calcio Mercato.
The competition:
Last summer, Roma also approached Real Madrid to explore the possibility of signing Endrick. Both the Giallorossi and Milan were told by the Spanish club’s management that they would not consider any arrangement other than a straight loan.
Offers on those terms were made, and Real Madrid would reportedly have accepted them, but, as mentioned, the striker himself put a stop to everything.
More clubs are likely to enquire about the Brazilian in the January transfer window, with teams abroad also monitoring his situation. If he continues to struggle for playing time over the coming months, he could decide to move on.
