Despite only giving him a measly four minutes of play since the start of the season, José Mourinho has said he is adamant that he will not let Endrick, a player he greatly appreciates, leave. At least to listen to him when discussing the subject on TNT, on the eve of the Champions League match between Real Madrid and AS Roma, incidentally one of the two clubs having a great desire to attract the Brazilian striker.

“Whoever is interested will have to fight to convince me, because I believe that he does not need to be loaned out and that he will do very well here. »
