Real Madrid re-emerge as a candidate to sign €100 million-rated Turkish international in 2027
Real Madrid have had very limited success, as far as their attacking unit is concerned, with Galactico signing Yan Diomande still yet to deliver.
Vinicius Jr. also looks like a shadow of his former self now, despite signing a lucrative contract renewal in the summer while Rodrygo has struggled with injuries.
This has once again forced Real Madrid to consider further reinforcements, possibly in the summer of 2027 and one of the targets the club may revisit is Kenan Yildiz.
Real Madrid in contention to sign Yildiz
According to Corriere dello Sport (h/t Diario SPORT), Real Madrid have emerged as a strong candidate to sign Kenan Yildiz in the summer of 2027.
The Juventus star is not a new target for Los Blancos. The club were interested in his services from the days of Xabi Alonso, who was keen on signing the Turkish international.
The move never materialised in 2025. This past summer, Real Madrid’s renewal of Vinicius Jr. coupled with the addition of Diomande meant the club did not attempt to sign Yildiz.
But the story could change next summer, with Juventus increasingly facing pressure to offload the Turkish international.
Thanks to his deal until 2030 and a lucrative salary package, Juventus consider Yildiz untouchable. But the report states the club could be forced to consider a sale if they fail to qualify for the Champions League.
Potential roadblocks for Real Madrid
Although Real Madrid appear to be in a favourable spot as far as the pursuit of Yildiz is concerned, there are several roadblocks the club must face.
For one, Juventus value the Turkish international at €100 million, which could rise further if the attacker continues to perform well.
Moreover, Real Madrid are not the only club interested in Yildiz, with the Juventus star also on the radar of Bayern Munich, who will not shy away from going big on a new winger next summer.
That being said, Real Madrid still remain the favourites and it will be interesting to see what the future has in store for Yildiz in the summer of 2027.
Real Madrid youngster Endrick continues to attract interest from several clubs ahead of another potential loan move in the upcoming January transfer window.
The latest side considering a move for the Brazilian forward is Aston Villa.
Indeed, according to reports relayed by Bernabeu Digital, the Premier League club are interested in signing the Real Madrid striker on loan in January.
No minutes for Endrick
Endrick has had very limited opportunities under Jose Mourinho this season. Across Real Madrid’s nine matches in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, the Brazilian has played just four minutes, coming on in the 86th minute against Elche.
Such limited playing time has left the young forward struggling to gain the minutes and experience needed to develop his talent at Real Madrid.
As such, another loan move, like last January when he left for Olympique Lyon, could offer him a chance to play more regularly and continue his progression.
Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, have now emerged as an interested party to acquire the Brazilian international’s services on loan for the second half of the season.
AC Milan also interested in Endrick
Howver, Aston Villa are not the only club monitoring Endrick’s situation. AC Milan have also renewed their interest in the Brazilian forward.
The Rossoneri already held an interest in the 20-year-old forward during the summer transfer window and are knocking on the doors once again now.
In fact, some reports in Italy even go on to suggest that the youngster is ready to pounce on the opportunity to sign for the Serie A giants.
For now, however, there have been no concrete developments or formal approaches from any interested club.
Real Madrid are understood to be open to allowing Endrick to leave on loan, but they are not considering a permanent sale as they still have a lot of faith in the promising attacker whom they signed from Palmeiras.
With Aston Villa and AC Milan both interested, the coming months could prove important in determining where the young Brazilian will continue his development.
