Arsenal eye Real's Endrick - Wednesday's gossip

Arsenal, Roma and Sporting are all interested in Real Madrid forward Endrick, with the Gunners hoping to use sporting director Andrea Berta's agency connections to facilitate a January move.

Arsenal are exploring a potential January move for Real Madrid forward Endrick, the 20-year-old Brazilian. The Gunners plan to leverage sporting director Andrea Berta's existing relationship with the player's agency to pursue the deal.

However, Arsenal face competition from Roma and Sporting CP, both of whom are keen to take Endrick on loan until the end of the season. The player is not yet ready to give up on his Real Madrid career, suggesting any move would likely be temporary rather than permanent.

Arsenal are also scouting other attacking options, including Atletico Madrid's Alex Baena, RB Leipzig's Antonio Nusa, and Bournemouth's Eli Junior Kroupi.
