Jose Mourinho and president Florentino Perez have blocked any January loan move for Endrick, the 20-year-old Brazilian forward who had attracted interest from Liverpool, Aston Villa and AC Milan. Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano left no doubt about Mourinho's stance: "Endrick is going nowhere".

The forward stays in the Real Madrid squad, determined to nail down a place after scoring against Roma in the Champions League. Jadon Sancho, meanwhile, has a fresh option on the table: the English winger, currently without a club, has received a formal offer from La Liga side Getafe.
