Endrick’s start at Real Madrid has been anything but conventional.
After missing the team’s initial trip to the United States due to injury, the 18-year-old forward has now rejoined the squad ahead of the Club World Cup knockout phase.
Although his recovery went faster than expected, questions remain about his place in the team under new manager Xabi Alonso.
That uncertainty, coupled with the sudden rise of Gonzalo García, has caught the attention of clubs abroad.
One of them is a European giant looking to take advantage of the situation.
According to AS, Juventus are closely monitoring Endrick’s situation at Real Madrid and could attempt to sign the Brazilian forward if an opportunity arises.
Endrick missed the Club World Cup group stage due to a late-season injury but traveled to the U.S. last weekend after recovering ahead of schedule.
Despite returning to team activities, it’s still unknown if he will play in the tournament’s later rounds.
The recent emergence of academy striker Gonzalo García has added uncertainty to Endrick’s short-term role in the squad.
Juventus, who face Real Madrid in the Club World Cup Round of 16, are reportedly ready to explore both a loan or permanent transfer depending on Madrid’s stance.
Real Madrid’s current position is clear: the club is counting on Endrick for the upcoming season and is not interested in letting him go.
While Juventus continues to monitor Endrick’s uncertain status, Real Madrid maintain a firm stance on the teenager’s future.
Even with increased competition from Gonzalo, the club views Endrick as a core part of their long-term project.
Whether or not he plays in the Club World Cup, being around the team and learning under Xabi Alonso is expected to accelerate his development.
Unless plans drastically shift, Endrick is set to stay at the Bernabéu, and Juventus will likely have to look elsewhere.
