Endrick’s Potential Serie A Move
Brazilian football icon Ronaldinho has weighed in on the future of compatriot Endrick, suggesting the young Real Madrid forward would be a strong fit for Serie A clubs AC Milan or AS Roma.
Endrick, 20, is currently with Spanish giants Real Madrid. This season, he has made seven appearances across all competitions, scoring one goal. Reports have linked Endrick with a potential move to Italy during the January transfer window, and Ronaldinho believes the forward possesses the versatility to succeed.
Speaking to Gazzetta dello Sport, Ronaldinho stated, “Certainly. He can play anywhere in the world. He’s played in many leagues and has done well in France, Brazil, and Spain. He’s very young, and he can do well.”
Ronaldinho’s Unexpected Return
Meanwhile, Ronaldinho himself is preparing for an unexpected return to competitive football. The 46-year-old is set to feature for Italian Serie C side Ravenna in a derby against Forlì.
His return to the pitch, more than a decade after his last competitive match in 2015, is part of a business partnership with Ravenna President Ignazio Cipriani. Ronaldinho, who landed in Italy on Friday and trained with his new teammates, is expected to play at least 30 minutes in the upcoming league game.
The former Barcelona and AC Milan star also took the opportunity to praise Brazil’s national team coach, Carlo Ancelotti. “He’s the best coach in the world; I’m sure he’ll do great things,” Ronaldinho commented.
