Real Madrid will agree to loan Endrick to Juventus only if Gonzalo García stays
Loan move hinges on internal squad decisions as major European clubs show interest
Real Madrid may consider loaning rising star Endrick to Juventus, but only if Gonzalo García remains at the club for the upcoming season, according to a report by Defensa Central. The Brazilian striker has attracted loan interest from several European clubs, including Newcastle, Valencia, and the Italian giants Juventus.
At the moment, the club’s management has not officially approved any loan move, but the situation remains fluid. A potential departure would only happen if Real Madrid feels confident in retaining internal attacking depth specifically through García.
Loan decision tied to forward depth
The Spanish giants are said to have communicated with Endrick that his short-term future at the club hinges on what happens with other players. If Gonzalo García is sold or loaned out, Endrick will stay to maintain squad balance. If García remains, however, Real Madrid may greenlight a loan to provide the Brazilian with more playing time elsewhere.
The uncertainty comes amid a busy transfer window for Los Blancos. Rodrygo, another Brazilian forward, is reportedly closer to leaving the Santiago Bernabéu, with Paris Saint-Germain preparing for his arrival.
Gonzalo García likely to stay
Despite interest from Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham, and PSG, Gonzalo García is expected to remain with the club. The 21-year-old forward has impressed during the Club World Cup, and Real Madrid reportedly sees long-term value in keeping him. Interest from clubs like West Ham and Getafe has not materialized into concrete deals.
García has made 10 first-team appearances, scoring five goals and contributing two assists since being promoted from the youth ranks.
Endrick still waiting for breakthrough
Endrick, meanwhile, has struggled with injuries and limited opportunities since joining Real Madrid. He missed the Club World Cup due to injury and has yet to fully establish himself under Xabi Alonso. During his appearances last season, he managed seven goals in 37 games, but mostly came off the bench.
While the club still sees potential in the 18-year-old, a loan could offer him the playing time he needs to further develop.
Rodrygo exit could change plans
Rodrygo’s situation could ultimately tip the balance. Reports from Spain suggest PSG is offloading players like Kolo Muani and Marco Asensio to create space for Rodrygo’s arrival. Should the transfer go through, it might solidify Endrick’s position in the squad potentially halting any loan discussions altogether.
