Aston Villa lead race to sign Real Madrid forward Endrick in January 2027

Published on: 06 October 2026

Aston Villa are the leading contenders to sign Real Madrid forward Endrick in January 2027, according to Football Italia.

The Brazil international is increasingly frustrated by his lack of playing time and is expected to leave on loan again in January. Endrick spent last season with Lyon, where he made a positive impression.

Italian clubs have previously shown interest in the forward. Roma attempted to negotiate a loan deal for him during the summer and remain interested, while Milan are also actively pursuing the player.

Aston Villa are currently viewed as the favourites because of their participation in the Champions League and the presence of head coach Unai Emery.

Roma are also competing in the Champions League, while Milan are considered the third-choice option among the clubs interested in Endrick.

The most important factor in Endrick’s decision over his next club will be the opportunity to play regularly.
