Real Madrid will not consider any offers for 19-year-old wonderkid – report
Having found minutes extremely hard to come by in the first half of the season, Endrick decided to leave Real Madrid in January.
The 19-year-old striker signed for Olympique Lyon on a loan deal until the end of the season, and so far, he has had a positive experience in France.
Despite there being some concerns of late, the Brazilian international has managed to record six goals and six assists from 16 appearances in all competitions for the Ligue 1 outfit.
Endrick will play for Real Madrid next season
Now, according to Mario Cortegana of The Athletic, Endrick will stay at Real Madrid next season once he returns from his loan spell at Lyon.
Indeed, Los Blancos have made a decision not to consider any offers for the teenage wonderkid in the summer transfer window.
Endrick and his camp were planning on reviewing his situation at the end of the season, when offers were expected to arrive for him.
However, Real Madrid have managed to convince the 19-year-old Brazilian striker about his importance in the team. As such, his entourage is no longer considering studying offers in the summer window.
Having arrived from Palmeiras in the summer of 2024, Endrick has made 40 appearances for Real Madrid, in which he has seven goals and one assist.
With Gonzalo Garcia expected to depart in the summer, the teenage prodigy will become the obvious backup option to Kylian Mbappe in the centre-forward position.
Real Madrid invested heavily in Endrick after his breakthrough at Palmeiras and have seemingly been convinced from his stint so far at Lyon that he has a future at the club.

Arsenal in contact with Real Madrid forward’s camp over potential transfer – report
Doubts about Rodrygo Goes’ long-term future at Real Madrid having been growing for some time.
The Brazilian’s situation had become uncomfortable over the past couple of seasons as he experienced a sudden decline in form. And, just when it seemed like he was about to turn things around, an ACL injury ruled him out in March earlier this year.
With Rodrygo now facing an extended spell on the sidelines, his recovery will be crucial. He is expected to return in December or January, and the club will monitor how he responds physically before determining what role he will play under Jose Mourinho.
Arsenal keeping tabs on Rodrygo
Now, according to TEAMtalk (h/t Bernabeu Digital), Arsenal are in contact with Rodrygo’s representatives over a potential future move.
The report states that the Gunners had already attempted to sign the Brazilian before his injury, and their interest has now resurfaced ahead of a possible move in the summer of 2027.
The Premier League champions had also explored the possibility of signing Vinicius Jr. from Real Madrid this past summer, before he signed a new long-term contract at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Now, their attention seems to have switched Vinicius’ fellow Brazilian forward who is closing in on his return from the ACL rupture.
Real Madrid want to keep Rodrygo until the summer
As already reported, Rodrygo will not leave Real Madrid in January. The intention is for the winger to regain full fitness and become available to Mourinho for the second half of the season.
Real Madrid are not considering selling the former Santos wonderkid during the January transfer window.
Instead, the club intend to reassess his situation next summer, once he has had the opportunity to recover and demonstrate his form on the pitch.
The plan is to have the Brazilian fit and available for the second half of the campaign before making a final decision at the end of the season.
Rodrygo’s performances after returning from injury, together with Mourinho’s assessment of his role in the squad, will help determine what happens next.
Depending on those factors, Real Madrid could consider allowing him to leave or decide that he still has an important future at the Santiago Bernabeu.
For now, Arsenal’s interest remains a possibility to watch, but Real Madrid are focused on Rodrygo’s recovery rather than negotiating a January departure.
