Endrick has become an even more attractive target for AS Roma after being one of the big news from Real Madrid on the last Champions League matchday. The 20-year-old Brazilian forward scored one of the goals in the white team's comeback with a 3-4 win, reinforcing the interest of the Italian club, which aims to secure his signing during the January 2027 transfer market.
The Roman team had already been monitoring the forward due to his lack of playing time in Spain, but his performance in the Olympic Stadium has changed the scenario. Now, Roma has more reasons to try to sign him, although they are aware that convincing Madrid will be more challenging.

Endrick convinces AS Roma with his performance in the Champions League
Endrick was one of the protagonists in Real Madrid's victory on October 14. The Brazilian entered the field in the 59th minute, replacing Vinicius, when the team led by José Mourinho was struggling to break through the Italian defense.
The comeback was completed with Antonio Rüdiger's goal in the 89th minute, also after a corner. Endrick was chosen as the best player of the match, a particularly significant recognition after several weeks with few opportunities.
Real Madrid does not want to part ways with Endrick
AS Roma seeks to take advantage of the forward's lack of continuity to persuade him to change teams. The Italian intention is to offer him a more prominent role during the second half of the season, although there is currently no known financial proposal.
The main issue lies in Madrid's position. José Mourinho has publicly stated that he does not consider the Brazilian's departure during the winter transfer market, especially after seeing his ability to impact a match coming off the bench.
Additionally, Endrick is under contract until June 2030, and his future depends directly on the white club. The forward returned last summer after a loan spell at Olympique de Lyon, where he gained playing time to further his development.
During the current season, he had only played 4 minutes in LaLiga before his appearance against Roma. This lack of opportunities explains why several European clubs have been monitoring his situation in recent weeks.

A decision regarding Endrick will be made before the January market
Despite the Italian interest, Endrick continues to prioritize his career at Madrid. However, after the match, he left open the possibility of reconsidering his situation if January arrives and he still does not get the necessary playing time.
His performance in Rome has also strengthened Mourinho's arguments to keep him in the squad. The Brazilian has shown that he can provide solutions in demanding matches, so facilitating a loan now would mean losing an offensive option.
The upcoming matches will be crucial for Endrick, who will have the opportunity to see if his goal changes his involvement at Real Madrid. AS Roma will continue to monitor his situation, but any move in January will depend on the playing time he receives and Mourinho's final decision.
