“SHOCKING TWIST! West Ham’s DESPERATE Bid to Snag Star Who SNUBBED Them in January – DOUBLE Mega-Deal on the Horizon!”
TBR Football report that West Ham are in negotiations with Real Madrid over a January loan deal for Endrick – the same player who turned down the Hammers earlier in 2025.
Nuno Espírito Santo faces a major challenge after taking over from Graham Potter, with West Ham languishing in 19th place in the Premier League.
The Hammers’ problems were highlighted in Monday’s 2-0 defeat to Brentford, where they started without a recognised striker due to a lack of attacking options.
According to TBR Football, the club are now looking to address that issue with a potential loan move for Real Madrid’s young forward Endrick.
Exclusive: West Ham open talks with Real Madrid over Endrick loan
TBR Football’s Chief Correspondent, Graeme Bailey, reports that West Ham have already opened discussions with Real Madrid over a possible January double swoop.
In addition to Endrick, the east London club are also interested in Spanish striker Gonzalo Garcia, with both players seen as ideal short-term solutions ahead of the mid-season transfer window.
With financial resources limited at the London Stadium, West Ham are focusing on loan deals to strengthen their squad this winter.
The Hammers have admired Endrick for some time, previously attempting to bring him to England shortly after his £60 million move from Palmeiras to Real Madrid was finalised in July 2024.
Since joining the Spanish giants, the 19-year-old Brazilian has found playing time hard to come by, unable to displace the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior.
He is yet to make an appearance in any competition under Xabi Alonso this season.
TBR Football understands that both Real Madrid and Endrick have agreed that a temporary move would benefit his development, with several clubs across Europe alerted to his availability.
West Ham have already acted on that opportunity and also asked about Garcia, who impressed last year by winning the Golden Boot at the FIFA Club World Cup, scoring four times in six matches.
The Spanish forward is reportedly open to a move to England, as Nuno urges the board to provide attacking reinforcements as soon as possible.
Should West Ham secure Endrick’s signature, he would be reunited with Luis Guilherme, his former Palmeiras teammate.
The two Brazilians developed together in the club’s academy and have shared the pitch 31 times.
Guilherme, who joined West Ham for £25 million in June 2024, has endured a difficult start in England, making 16 appearances without a goal or assist.
The arrival of his close friend could provide the spark both he and the team desperately need.
