Real Madrid could be very busy on the transfer front in 2025, and plans for a series of high profile movements have been made. Club officials want to bring the support couple Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alphonso Davies from Liverpool and Bayern Munich respectively, while speculation continues to persist on a possible arrival of the striker.
Real Madrid may need a new number nine if Vinicius Junior leaves, since Kylian Mbappe would surely vacate the position to move to his preferred place in the left wing. They already have Endrick Felipe, but despite their recent heroic against Celta Vigo in the Copa del Rey, Foot Mercato has reported that the teenager would be allowed to be borrowed.
The reason for this alleged position is that Real Madrid is interested in Aston Villa Jhon Duran striker, according to the information of the same report. The 21 -year -old has scored 12 times this season, despite having been used mainly as an impact substitute for his chief coach, Unai Emery.
Duran, who has also been inclined as a possible successor to Robert Lewandowski in Barcelona, has become a merchandise in recent months, with Paris Saint-Germain, West Ham United and Al-Nassr are showing interest in their services. However, it is worth noting that Aston Villa has no plans to sell to the Colombian international, which is unlikely to be available for a little less than € 80-90 million.
The report establishes that Real Madrid could use Endrick in an agreement with Aston Villa for Duran, although only as a loan candidate, since the defense champions of the League and Europe have no plans to sell to the Brazilian adolescent.
It would be a surprise if Real Madrid moved to Duran. Although he is clearly a very exciting young striker, Carlo Ancelotti’s first team simply does not need it for now, especially because there is a lot of belief in Endrick, with whom it would also be a surprise if he was lent.
