“I just want to play” – Endrick fuels Real Madrid exit talk amid AC Milan links

By: Oliver Fisher

Endrick has not closed the door on the idea of leaving Real Madrid as he continues to be linked with a move to AC Milan.

It is no secret that Milan tried to sign Endrick on a loan deal in the summer window, but Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho blocked his exit. After getting not much playing time in the first part of the season, talk has grown that the Brazilian could be allowed to depart in January.

Milan remain at the window as they look to strengthen their attack with an added goal threat, while Roma have also been linked, as have clubs in the Premier League. Fabrizio Romano even reported that the former Palmeiras star is an ‘obsession’ for Gerry Cardinale.

Interviewed by Globo’s Cahe Mota directly from the Brazilian national team’s training camp, Endrick commented on his future and seemed to offer a bit of hope to interested clubs.

“I’m only 20 years old, so I’ll see how things unfold. I just want to play, be happy, and help my team-mates. I don’t know what will happen in January; it’s all in God’s hands. I just ask for what’s best for my career,” he said (via MilanNews).

“Whatever happens, will happen. I’ll keep my feet on the ground and give my all. Madrid is a wonderful city, but I’ll always do whatever it takes to keep growing and moving forward in my career.”
