Endrick at Palmeiras?
According to information obtained by “ESPN”, the Spanish club has already decided that Endrick will be loaned in January, at the start of the second half of the European season (2025/26). Even though the athlete’s father mentioned Palmeiras, the career strategy outlined for Endrick completely rules out a return to Brazil at this time.
The player’s representatives, who are already actively looking for interested parties, focus exclusively on the European market. Real Madrid’s preference is for him to play for a team with a high competitive level on the continent.
Non-Real Endrick Numbers
Since joining the Merengue squad in the second half of 2024, 19-year-old Endrick has played 37 official matches and scored seven goals. His contract with Real Madrid is valid until June 2030. The transfer from Palmeiras involved a fixed €35 million and could yield another €25 million in bonuses for goals achieved.
