Endrick is reportedly being linked with a sensational move to the Premier League as he struggles for game time at Real Madrid under Carlo Ancelotti.

The Brazilian wonderkid announced himself to English football fans when he scored a superb solo effort against the Three Lions at Wembley in March.

His performances at Palmeiras that season earned him rave reviews and a big move to Real in July, with many expecting the 18-year-old to light up the Bernabeu this campaign.

But he has bafflingly been starved of opportunities by Ancelotti, playing just 122 minutes in all competitions and scoring two goals.

Endrick is believed to be worried about stagnating and is open to a loan move away from LOS Blancos with clubs circling to try to secure the services of the talented forward.

And the starlet may end up at bottom of the table Southampton with the struggling Saints thought to be interested in luring the Brazilian to St Mary's on a short-term deal to save their season. The south coast side have scored just seven goals in 11 matches in a disastrous start to the season which has seen them win only once. Centre-forward Cameron Archer is the sole player to have bagged more than one goal. Russell Martin's outfit face competition from a host of other teams looking to inject Endrick's quality into their squads in January.

Italian side Roma have just welcomed former boss Claudio Ranieri back to the Stadio Olimpico and are also craving goals, striking 14 times in 12 matches during their rapid start to the campaign.

Endrick is also being eyed up by Real's La Liga rivals Real Valladolid who are in severe danger of being relegated, racking up only nine points in 13 matches leaving them second bottom.

The youngster is thought to have known what he was signing up for at the Bernabeu, entering a Champions League-winning side which boasts the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, Jude Bellingham and summer recruit Kylian Mbappe.

But there is a growing feeling that he is being a tad harshly treated by Ancelotti after making the most of his limited game time with two goals.

Endrick is believed to be confident in his ability and willing to fight for his place, while learning from the array of talent at the club, but a loan move is definitely a possibility to get him back out on the pitch.

Real have invested heavily in the 18-year-old, tying him down to a six-year contract, and will be cautious to send him to the right place if they loan him out.
