Andrik’s deal with Real Madrid was actually agreed upon already in December 2022. The Brazilian striker arrived with great fanfare from Palmeiras last summer to the European champions, who paid 60 million euros for him. With a difficult fight along with Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Rodrigo for the place in the lineup, the 18-year-old striker is expected to have a big competition to get minutes, and even after only two official games for the Blancos this season, reports in Spain link Andric to an early transfer.
BS claim that both the young player’s surroundings and Real Madrid want to see Andric get as many playing minutes as possible in order to gain experience in European football. One of the possibilities, according to the same report from Spain, is the question this coming January if he won’t get enough minutes on the pitch, when several Premier League clubs have already expressed interest in the Brazilian.
