Reports of Arsenal interest in Endrick dismissed
What happened
Speculation linking Real Madrid forward Endrick with a move to Arsenal has been rejected, according to a report from The Athletic cited by Get Spanish Football News. The outlet said multiple sources familiar with the situation described media reports connecting Endrick to Arsenal, and also to Sporting CP, as untrue. The same sources said Arsenal had not expressed any interest in signing the Brazilian.
Report details
The denial follows a period in which Endrick, described in the report as 20 years old, was widely tipped for a January departure from Real Madrid. The report attributes his limited playing time to the arrival of new head coach José Mourinho and says the forward has been linked with a second successive winter loan. Because he is still regarded by many as a future star, a range of clubs were credited with interest, with Arsenal among them as the club looked for attacking reinforcements for the second half of the season. The report does not indicate any other outcome for Endrick beyond the denial of the Arsenal and Sporting CP links.
