Liverpool have entered the race for Real Madrid forward Endrick as speculation builds around his future this summer.
ESPN Brazil reports that the Reds have shown genuine interest in the 20-year-old, though no formal bid has been submitted so far. He’s also been tied to Manchester United in recent transfer chatter.
Endrick spent the second half of last season on loan at Lyon, where he impressed significantly, racking up 16 goal involvements across 21 appearances. That kind of form underlines why consistent game time matters so much for his growth, and there are real doubts over whether Madrid can offer him that platform right now.
Despite the interest from England, the report suggests Endrick isn’t actively seeking an exit. He’d rather fight for his place at the Bernabéu, and newly installed boss Jose Mourinho is said to already rate what he’s seeing from the youngster in training sessions.
Still, how things unfold from here is far from certain. What’s clear is that Endrick can’t afford another season stuck on the bench — regular football is non-negotiable at this stage of his career. Should Madrid fail to guarantee him a proper role, a switch to Liverpool would make plenty of sense.
Liverpool are short on options up front and could use a player of Endrick’s profile — he’s comfortable across all three forward positions and brings genuine unpredictability to an attack. At Anfield, he could thrive and edge closer to realizing the immense promise he’s shown.
Real Madrid isn’t the only place he might end up outside of Liverpool interest, either. Aston Villa have also emerged as suitors, with Champions League football on the horizon and a need for more attacking firepower. Working under a manager of Unai Emery’s calibre, with the promise of real minutes, could also appeal to the young forward.
