Former Man United transfer target Endrick is seeking a loan move to the Premier League, according to reports.
Both the Red Devils and Aston Villa were linked with signing the striker prior to his switch to Lyon in January, and journalist Ramon Alvarez de Mon claims English clubs will now have another chance to secure his services.
Posting on X, Alvarez de Mon said that Endrick’s agency Roc Nation are “working on” the deal, as the arrival of both Yan Diomande and Carlos Espi will reduce his chances of getting regular first-team football at the Bernabeu.
Some supporters on X believe that the Brazilian international would be an excellent addition to Michael Carrick’s side:
Please United get this kid!!

Backup striker offering a different profile to Sesko, why not.

He’s making less than £80k/week. There’s almost no downside to bringing him in as an option on those wages. Even his fee, if there’s a conditional obligation to buy, wouldn’t be THAT high.

If the price was right and he wanted to come @ManUtd should be in the hunt

Man Utd may not be interested
It was reported in November last year that the Red Devils cooled their interest in Endrick after learning that the player did not want a purchase clause included in a loan deal.
If the teenager has maintained that stance, it seems unlikely that Director of Football Jason Wilcox would come back to the negotiating table.

Another striker could be signed instead of Endrick
If Joshua Zirkzee is sold back to Italy before the transfer window closes, Wilcox will be in the market for a new no.9.
Several names have been mentioned as potential targets. Over the past couple of months, Brentford’s Igor Thiago and Al-Ahli’s Ivan Toney have been the two most prominent links
A lot still hinges on Zirkzee leaving Old Trafford, so you wouldn’t expect any imminent arrivals in the striker department.
