Endrick is preparing for a temporary exit from Real Madrid as he seeks to revive his stalled career. Despite a prolific loan spell at Lyon last season, where he recorded 16 goal contributions in 21 appearances, the 20-year-old has found opportunities scarce since returning to the Spanish capital.
The young attacker has been limited to just four minutes of La Liga action this season. Breaking into the starting XI has proven nearly impossible, with manager Jose Mourinho favoring a stacked attacking lineup that includes Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham, alongside the preferred rotational option Carlos Espi.
AC Milan has emerged as the clear frontrunner for the forward's signature. According to reports, Endrick has personally identified the Rossoneri as his preferred destination should he depart Madrid this winter. The potential deal is also supported by strong institutional links, as his agency, Roc Nation, maintains a close relationship with Milan owner Gerry Cardinale.
A move to Serie A would provide the regular playing time essential for a prospect of his caliber. With the January window approaching, both the player and the club are under pressure to find a solution that prevents his development from stagnating further on the bench.
