Claudio Ranieri's re-re-re debut as Roma manager is still 96 hours away. The Tinkerman's starting lineup for Sunday's match against Napoli is still unknown, but transfer rumours about potential winter arrivals are already circulating. The Giallorossi may require reinforcements at almost every position save custodian, particularly in attack where Ranieri's increased focus on forward play necessitates additional depth along the front line.
The Spanish publication Sport has thus proposed a cross-capital deal in which Brazilian superstar Endrick would exchange the luxury of Real Madrid and Santiago Bernabeu for the mayhem and disaster of AS Roma and the Stadio Olimpico. The 18-year-old Endrick moved to Madrid from Palmeiras for €47.5 million in July of last year, but he has struggled to find playing time ever since. In that short period, he has only played 129 minutes in all competitions, although he has scored two goals.
