Liverpool are targeting offensive reinforcements this summer following the departure of Mohamed Salah at the end of last season.

The club are prioritising a player capable of producing consistent output in the final third, particularly from the right wing position.

Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola has been heavily linked with a switch to Anfield over recent weeks as one potential solution.

Yan Diomande has also been of interest to Liverpool, but the RB Leipzig star appears to be heading to Real Madrid instead.

With that avenue seemingly closed, Liverpool have now identified Real Madrid forward Endrick as a suitable target this summer, according to Spanish source Fichajes.

Liverpool would be willing to initially offer £43 million to secure the Brazilian international’s services, the report claims.

Endrick spent time on loan at Olympique Lyon from January this year until the end of the 2025/26 season, scoring 8 goals and contributing 8 assists across all competitions.

The 19-year-old’s dribbling, physicality, left-footedness, and ability to cut inside and unleash powerful shots make him a versatile and dangerous attacking option.

While primarily deployed as a striker, his attributes mean Liverpool could utilise him effectively on the right wing to fill the gap left by Salah.

However, Liverpool’s opening offer of £43 million looks well short of what Real Madrid would demand for one of South America’s most highly rated young talents.

Endrick remains part of Madrid’s long-term plans despite limited minutes at the club over the past couple of seasons, making a sale far from straightforward.

Jose Mourinho could value his strong work-rate and ability to make a quick impact in the final third even if Yan Diomande joins Los Blancos, so all things point towards Endrick staying in Madrid for this season unless Liverpool make a massive offer.

Real Madrid may only entertain selling if they successfully complete the signing of Diomande, leaving Liverpool’s pursuit dependent on developments elsewhere at the Bernabeu.
