According to a recent report by SPORT, Real Madrid forward Endrick has drawn interest from several clubs, including West Ham United, Valencia, and Real Sociedad, who are looking to sign him in the January transfer window.

Despite being a highly rated young talent, Endrick has struggled for opportunities at Real Madrid this season. 

He has been on the bench for five consecutive games now and has yet to open his scoring account. 

Amidst all this, Xabi Alonso has made it clear that he is following a specific plan with the forward, and Endrick will need to make the most of the minutes he is given if he wants to break through.

A loan could help regain momentum

The situation is not easy for the 19-year-old. With the World Cup approaching, Endrick is aware that limited playing time could harm his chances of making an impression on the national stage. 

For now, Madrid are reportedly open to a loan move in January, and several clubs are keen to provide him with the platform to play regularly.

As such, West Ham, Valencia, and Real Sociedad all see Endrick as a hungry striker capable of strengthening their attack. 

During his short time at Madrid, he has already shown glimpses of his goal-scoring ability, netting seven goals in just eight starts last season.

Could have left this summer

Notably, Endrick missed a potential move last summer as he was focused on recovering from a mid-May injury, which sidelined him for months. 

Now, he faces increased competition for minutes with the arrival of Franco Mastantuono and Gonzalo Garcia, while playing alongside established stars like Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe.

This means a loan spell could give Endrick the consistent playing time he needs to regain confidence, score goals, and continue developing as a player. 

It would also allow Alonso and the Real Madrid staff to monitor his progress while keeping him in contention for future opportunities, including a potential spot at the World Cup.

Carlos Espi reacts after scoring match-winning goal in Elche 2-3 Real Madrid: ‘Starting like this is a dream’

Carlos Espi is becoming Real Madrid’s unlikely late-game specialist.

The 21-year-old once again came off the bench to rescue Jose Mourinho’s side, this time scoring the 91st-minute winner in a dramatic 3-2 victory over Elche

It was his second goal for the club, and both have arrived at crucial moments.

Speaking to Real Madrid TV after the match, Espi could barely contain his excitement.

“I’m so happy—the happiest man in the world. I try to help the team any way I can, and every time I step onto the field, I give it my all and come away feeling great. 

“Starting like this has been a dream. This isn’t over yet; we’re going to keep going because we have Sunday’s match coming up. 

“This is a team effort. All of us who take the field make the most of our opportunities and give it our all,” he began.

Espi keeps making his minutes count

There is a growing pattern to Espi’s involvement. Even though he has yet to start a match for the first team, that has not stopped him from making an impact.

His first goal arrived against Espanyol in Real Madrid’s opening game, when another late strike helped secure the result. 

Against Elche, he was required again after Real Madrid surrendered a two-goal lead and suddenly found themselves in serious trouble.

Espi eventually appeared at the back post in the 91st minute and finished the move to give Mourinho’s team all three points.

The youngster shared the credit with his teammates, but he also had special praise for the player who supplied his decisive moment.

That assist came from Kylian Mbappe, whose presence has made Espi’s route into the starting XI particularly difficult.

“It’s unbelievable—it’s crazy to watch him train and play. In this case, he set me up for the goal, and I’m very happy for him, too.”

First Madrid derby already has Espi excited

The timing of Espi’s latest contribution could hardly be more interesting, as Real Madrid now face Atletico Madrid on Sunday, giving the forward an opportunity to experience his first Madrid derby.

“I’m really looking forward to it—I’m so excited. It’s my first derby here, and we’re going to go for it.”

For Mourinho, Espi is a useful option when matches become chaotic. He may not yet be a regular starter, but his two appearances on the scoresheet have carried considerably more weight than the minutes he has played.
