Roma are closely monitoring Endrick and would be strongly interested in signing the Real Madrid forward on loan, according to Alfredo Pedullà.
The Giallorossi have reportedly been following the Brazilian’s situation for more than a month and are waiting for Real Madrid to make a final decision about his immediate future.
A permanent transfer is not considered a realistic possibility. Real Madrid have no intention of losing control of Endrick and, should they approve another temporary departure, would be expected to sanction only a loan without a purchase option.
The 20-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at Lyon before returning to Madrid. His next step now depends on the role available to him in the Spanish capital and whether the club believes another loan would be best for his development.
Roma’s interest is described as concrete, but the potential operation remains at an early stage. No negotiations or agreements have been reported, with Real Madrid’s decision required before the situation can advance.
Meanwhile, Roma are also prioritising the arrival of a left-sided attacking winger. The club are expected to direct their largest financial investment towards that position and could reportedly spend as much as €50 million on the right target.
That search should be viewed separately from the pursuit of Endrick, who primarily operates as a centre-forward. A loan for the Brazilian could provide Roma with another high-level attacking option without using the budget reserved for a major investment on the left wing.
Endrick therefore remains a name to watch during the coming weeks as Roma await clarity from Real Madrid.
Roma Enquire About Endrick and Mastantuono but Reject Straight-Loan Formula
Roma sporting director Tony D’Amico has requested information about Real Madrid talents Endrick and Franco Mastantuono, according to Il Messaggero.
The Giallorossi could accelerate their interest if Matias Soulé leaves, but D’Amico is reportedly unwilling to consider a straight loan for either player. Roma would only explore an operation containing an option to buy—a condition that could prove difficult given Real Madrid’s desire to retain complete control of both South American prospects.
Gasperini Prefers Endrick as Roma Cool Interest in Mastantuono – Update 12:00PM
According to Lorenzo Canicchio, Roma’s interest in Endrick remains active, while Franco Mastantuono is not currently considered a leading target because his profile does not particularly convince Gian Piero Gasperini.
The Roma coach is instead a major admirer of the 20-year-old Brazilian, whose name had already received internal approval before the recent reports emerged.
A possible route between Roma and Real Madrid therefore remains open, with the situation expected to be monitored closely over the coming days.
