Sporting target pushes for exit, but Varandas faces stiff competition | OneFootball

Endrick is interested in leaving Real Madrid in the January transfer window. The player, who was one of Sporting's targets for Rui Borges' attack in the summer of 2025, wants to find a new home to play until the end of the season.

After being seen as one of the greatest promises in world football, Endrick has seen his opportunities decrease at Real Madrid. The number of options Xabi Alonso has for the attack at Los Blancos has reduced the Brazilian forward's minutes, and he fears that his development may be at risk.

The information is reported by ESPN, which also explains the player's conditions for moving to a new club: Endrick wants a club in one of the top five European leagues, or one of the big three in Portugal; he wants to play in the Champions League or Europa League; and he wants to be part of a system that plays high-volume attacking football, in a team that competes for titles.

ESPN contacted several sources, taking into account the Brazilian striker's wish list, and compiled a list of clubs that have some probability of securing the player until the end of the season. However, that list does not include Sporting of Frederico Varandas.

Juventus, Real Sociedad, Marseille, or Sevilla are the clubs mentioned as possible destinations for Endrick on loan from Real Madrid. According to ESPN, the Turin team is currently in the lead to secure the player this season.
