Real Madrid youngster Endrick has openly admitted that he could seek a departure from the club during the January transfer window if his lack of regular playing time continues.

The 20-year-old forward made headlines by scoring Real Madrid’s crucial third goal in a sensational 4-3 Champions League comeback victory over Roma.

Despite his undeniable impact on the European stage, the strike marked his first goal of the season, coming after making just two appearances across all competitions and logging a paltry four minutes in LaLiga.

Speaking to TNT Sports Brazil after the match, Endrick reflected candidly on his current predicament and his future at the Santiago Bernabéu.

“I take it day by day. If I have to leave in January, I’ll leave; if I have to stay, I’ll stay. I will do whatever God puts in my heart,” Endrick said.

Despite his frustrations with a lack of minutes, the young Brazilian expressed deep gratitude toward manager José Mourinho, highlighting the strong bond they share.

“I’m very grateful to Mourinho. He is one of the first coaches who has genuinely spoken to me. I trust him with open arms. While I’m here, my job isn’t to play for the manager to win, but for Real Madrid. But because of everything he is doing for me, I’m going to fight for him and for Real.”

With the January transfer window looming, Endrick’s future will remain a major talking point as the talented forward weighs his development against the fierce competition for places in Madrid’s star-studded squad.
