Roma will return to the transfer market in January, searching for a winger.
Several names are on the list, but since last summer, Endrick has been a target for the club’s management and Gian Piero Gasperini.
The Brazilian remained at Real Madrid at José Mourinho’s request, but is struggling to find playing time and could move on loan in the winter transfer window.
In Italy, AC Milan is also pursuing the Blancos’ number 9, but both are facing a deal with Aston Villa.
According to Spanish portal Cadena SER, Aston Villa currently has the upper hand in the race for the 2006-born player.
Endrick would like to play in the Champions League, and for this reason, Aston Villa is currently considered a desirable destination by Spanish media outlets. But Roma also plays in Europe’s premier league, and on October 14th, the Brazilian will get a close-up look at the Olimpico, when Los Blancos face the Roman club.
Will the allure of the Olimpico change the game? The road between now and January is long, and the Giallorossi will continue to press for Gasp’s highly talented winger. If that isn’t enough, Tony D’Amico will have to look elsewhere: the winger is crucial, and the Giallorossi coach has wanted him from the moment he arrives.
