Endrick to the Bundesliga? German Club Looking to Convince Real Madrid
The future of Endrick could take an unexpected turn in the upcoming winter transfer window. According to reports from both Germany and Spain, VfB Stuttgart has opened talks with Real Madrid to secure the loan of the young Brazilian forward, aiming to give him regular playing time in the Bundesliga while the Spanish giants continue to oversee his development.
Stuttgart Searching for Goals and Trusting in the Brazilian
The team managed by Sebastian Hoeneß is struggling in attack following injuries to Ermedin Demirovic and Deniz Undav, two of its key offensive players. For that reason, Stuttgart sees Endrick, just 19 years old, as the ideal solution to reinforce their frontline and maintain their push for European qualification.
The Brazilian, who has had limited minutes under Xabi Alonso, is reportedly open to a loan move that would allow him to gain experience in a more consistent and competitive environment. So far this season, he has been behind stars like Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Jr., and Rodrygo, which has limited his opportunities at the Santiago Bernabéu.
The Connection Between Hoeneß and Xabi Alonso
One key factor that could facilitate the deal is the strong relationship between Sebastian Hoeneß and Xabi Alonso, formed during their time in the Bundesliga. According to German outlets, the Real Madrid manager trusts Hoeneß’s ability to nurture young talents — an advantage that places Stuttgart ahead of other interested clubs, such as Marseille, Eintracht Frankfurt, and RB Leipzig.
Sources close to the German club report that negotiations are already underway and that the potential loan could last six months, including a conditional purchase option and a commitment to provide regular playing time in European competitions.
Real Madrid’s Stance
At the Bernabéu, Real Madrid are not ruling out a temporary departure for Endrick, provided that certain conditions are met: he must play in a top-tier league, receive consistent minutes, and the deal must exclude a mandatory purchase clause. The goal is for the former Palmeiras prodigy to gain valuable experience before fully establishing himself in Madrid’s first team.
Speaking to TNT Sports Brasil, Xabi Alonso addressed the situation:
“Everyone wants to play, especially young players. But you have to understand the context — we’re competing at the highest level, and there isn’t always space. Endrick needs to be patient; his moment will come.”
A Decision That Could Shape His Career
A loan move to Stuttgart could be crucial in the development of one of South America’s brightest young talents. At just 19, Endrick is eager for the minutes he needs to continue his growth and prepare for his ultimate challenge: succeeding at Real Madrid.
If completed, the Brazilian would become one of the headline moves of the winter window, while Stuttgart would gain a rising star capable of keeping their momentum alive in Germany.
