Recent reports and speculation concerning Endrick‘s possible transfer from Real Madrid to Arsenal have been clarified by reliable sources. According to an article by Mario Cortegana in The Athletic, while no decision has been reached regarding Endrick’s departure in January, he is likely to seek a transfer if opportunities for playing time remain limited.
However, reports linking the young forward to Sporting CP and Arsenal have been described as inaccurate according to Cortegana. The coaching staff at Madrid, including head coach Jose Mourinho, intend to retain Endrick, believing he will eventually see substantial playtime.

A report by Miguel Delaney in the Independent confirmed that Arsenal is considering Endrick as a potential forward to sign in January.
Additionally, Alex Crook from talkSPORT reported that they are eyeing a possible January transfer. However, he highlighted that Eli Junior Kroupi remains Mikel Arteta’s preferred option, making Endrick a more realistic alternative due to Kroupi’s unavailability.
In addition, Spanish journalist Ramon Alvarez de Mon stated that Arsenal is the latest club expressing interest in Endrick, who seeks more playtime after recording only 141 minutes on the field this season.
Despite the recent buzz, sources indicate that these reports may have been premature.

Despite limited playing time this season, Endrick has made a significant impact, contributing a goal and an assist. He helped Real Madrid stage a comeback against AS Roma, equalizing the game before Antonio Rudiger scored the winning goal. Unlike Arsenal, Roma reportedly has legitimate interest in acquiring Endrick.
Endrick previously enjoyed a successful loan at Olympique Lyon, where he scored eight goals and registered eight assists in 21 matches.
