Serie A giants Juventus are reportedly in a race with Tottenham Hotspur to sign Real Madrid prodigy Endrick on a loan deal. The 18-year-old joined Los Blancos from Brazilian side Palmeiras in the summer of 2024 for a reported €60 million.

Endrick's career began with the Palmeiras youth team at the age of 11. He made his senior team debut for the Brazilian side in October 2022 at the age of 16, becoming the youngest player to appear in Palmeiras' first team. In 82 outings for the Brazilian club, he recorded 21 goals and four assists.

After joining Real Madrid in the summer of 2024, Endrick made his debut for the club in a LaLiga clash against Real Valladolid in August 2024. The Brazilian was subbed on in the 86th minute and scored the third goal for Los Blancos in their 3-0 victory. He has recorded two goals and one assist in nine outings for the Merengues.

According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes.net, Real Madrid are considering a loan deal for Endrick with Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus interested in his signature. With multiple superstars in their attacking side, Los Blancos are unable to provide enough game time for Endrick. The club reportedly believes that sending him on loan could help develop him further and offer him a new experience.

Tottenham Hotspur are currently at a transitional stage under Ange Postecoglou. Spurs could benefit from bringing in Endrick, with their squad consisting of a mix of experienced and new talent. Meanwhile, Juventus could also guarantee some playing time for Endrick before he returns to Real Madrid to fight for a position in the starting line-up.

According to Fichajes.net, Real Madrid are interested in signing Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland. Los Blancos are reportedly willing to break the bank to sign the superstar, who is under contract with Manchester City until 2027.

The Spanish giants have not had an out-and-out striker in their squad since Karim Benzema's departure in 2023. The aforementioned report suggests Real Madrid consider Erling Haaland the ideal candidate to bolster the striker position.

The Spanish giants signed Kylian Mbappe as a free agent this summer after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired. The Frenchman has inherited the number nine shirt at the club but has not performed upto the mark in the striker position.

Erling Haaland is widely considered among the best strikers in world football today. In 112 appearances for Manchester City, the Norwegian has scored 104 times and set up 14 more. The 24-year-old could be the perfect candidate to bolster any attacking line-up.

However, Haaland's arrival could complicate things for Mbappe. Apart from the French superstar, Los Blancos' attack already boasts the likes of Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo and Arda Guler. It remains to be seen if there are any departures, with Saudi clubs reportedly interested in Vinicius and Premier League clubs reportedly eyeing Rodrygo.
