After coming back to Santiago Bernabeu with heaps of promise and an excellent loan spell at Lyon, Endrick's season hasn't really unfolded the way he was hoping for.
The Brazilian international's progress has been slowed by injuries and a lack of game-time. The fact that Real Madrid have landed on a brilliant deal by signing Carlos Espi doesn't help things either.
All of these factors have led to question marks over Endrick's future, with AS Roma credited with interest in the forward in the upcoming January transfer window.
According to English commentator Feargal Brennan (h/t Defensa Central), Jose Mourinho could reconsider his position on Endrick's future when the winter market opens.

The Indianapolis Colts open the regular season at home against the Baltimore Ravens.
To help us preview this matchup, Glenn Erby, the managing editor of Ravens Wire, answered a handful of our questions to provide some insights into this Baltimore team.
Ravens Wire: Minter has been organized, direct, and consistent since taking over. He brings energy without manufacturing it, and players have responded to his detailed but collaborative approach. He has also allowed his coordinators to establish their identities while remaining heavily involved with the defense. The biggest takeaway is that he appears comfortable leading the entire operation rather than simply functioning as a defensive-minded head coach. The regular season will present different challenges, but the transition from John Harbaugh has been smoother than many expected.
Ravens Wire: Baltimore's defensive front should be its biggest strength. The Ravens added Trey Hendrickson to a group that could regain Nnamdi Madubuike while also featuring Calais Campbell, Travis Jones, and second-round pick Zion Young. Roquan Smith and Kyle Hamilton give the defense elite talent behind that front. If Madubuike remains healthy, Baltimore should be able to stop the run without sacrificing its ability to pressure quarterbacks.
Ravens Wire: The interior offensive line is the primary concern. Baltimore will start Jovaughn Gwyn at center and rookie first-round pick Vega Ioane at right guard. Gwyn has never started an NFL game, while Ioane will make his regular-season debut against DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart. The Ravens are also installing Declan Doyle's offense, so communication and protection errors could occur early. Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry can cover plenty of weaknesses, but Indianapolis has the personnel to test that inexperienced interior.

In a long interview with France Football just a few weeks before the Ballon d'Or, Kylian Mbappé opened up about the players who will shape football in the years to come.
Mbappé then revealed a short list and was full of praise for a certain Lamine Yamal.
"To determine the ten to fifteen best players in the world, I think everyone agrees. Among the youngsters? Lamine Yamal. He has everything [...] I really like Estevao, he has a certain creativity. Here, Arda Güler can go very far. Endrick has potential, he's a goalscorer. Warren (Zaïre-Emery), Désiré (Doué), they're going to have great careers, that's for sure," he explained.
It's a gesture that could prove costly for Memphis Depay.
During the first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarter-final between Corinthians and Estudiantes, the Dutch forward lost his cool by making an obscene gesture toward the Argentine crowd after his club's equalizer in the second half.

Corey Day's rapid climb through NASCAR isn't slowing down.
Hendrick Motorsports announced Wednesday that it has signed Day to a long-term contract extension, keeping one of the sport's most closely watched young drivers in the organization for years to come. And Hendrick isn't simply bringing him back for another season in NASCAR's O'Reilly Auto Parts Series.
Day is officially headed to the Cup Series.
The 20-year-old will return to Hendrick's No. 17 Chevrolet for a second full O'Reilly Series season in 2027 while also making his Cup debut with a limited schedule. Hendrick has not yet announced which Cup races Day will run or provided additional details about that program.
It's another major step for a driver who was still learning how to race stock cars on pavement just two years ago.

William Byron has a new problem.
And for once, it has absolutely nothing to do with his race car.
The Hendrick Motorsports star has NASCAR fans wondering whether he has quietly moved on from his previous relationship after appearing alongside social media influencer Kylan Darnell.
The two were spotted together during Byron's recent vacation, with Darnell appearing in a photo Byron posted to Instagram. She also left a couple of very interesting comments on the post.
One simply read, "my fav."

It was a tumultuous night for William Byron at the Darlington Raceway in the Cook Out Southern 500. The driver of the No. 24 was forced to exit the race prematurely in the final stage after his engine expired, resulting in a 37th-place finish.
Byron, who has failed to win in 2026, entered the NASCAR Cup Series Chase 13th in the standings. Following a tough result on Sunday night at Darlington, the Hendrick Motorsports driver finds himself at the bottom of the Chase in the 16th position.
Moments prior to Byron's motor blowing, the North Carolina native triggered a caution after spinning out due to a tire failure.
Byron was having a solid run at "The Track Too Tough to Tame" for most of the evening. The 28-year-old placed ninth in Stage 1 and eighth in Stage 2, aiming to put together a quality run to kick off the Chase. Yet, things were going well until they weren't.
Byron's tire failure happened during the final stage as his Valvoline Chevrolet went sliding through turns 3 and 4, which brought out the caution on Lap 315. On the subsequent restart, Byron suffered an engine failure, forcing him to take his HMS machine behind the wall.

The Los Angeles Rams have historically been OK with a lack of size at the cornerback position. Their last few draft picks—although rare—have demonstrated this from Cobie Durant and Derion Kendrick to the likes of Tre Tomlinson.
But the Rams did something very out of character this offseason: they made a major free agent signing and brought in a player with real size attributes. Jaylen Watson is listed at 6-2 and 197 lbs.
The addition of Watson got lost in the shuffle during the aftermath of LA's trade for higher profile corner Trent McDuffie, his Kansas City teammate. McDuffie also fits the Rams' preference or accommodation of smaller defenders, although he has a strong lower half and is a willing tackler out of the slot.
However, in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers, Watson may be the more important contributor out of the two.
The San Francisco 49ers' biggest offseason addition was receiver Mike Evans. It wouldn't be wise for the Rams to ask McDuffie to cover one of the most physical receivers in the NFL—this is a job for Watson.

Real Madrid coach José Mourinho had THREE players return to training this Sunday (6), on the eve of the team's Champions League debut.
Tchouaméni, Thiago Pitarch, and Endrick trained normally. The trio will still be re-evaluated in the coming days.
According to Marca, of the three, Thiago Pitarch and Endrick have the best chances of returning.
Real Madrid will host Inter Milan on Tuesday (8) at 4 p.m. at the Bernabéu.
Endrick, therefore, could make his debut under José Mourinho.

Texas high school football season featured some marquee showdowns this weekend. The Week 2 schedule featured blockbuster games and also some equally notable final scores. Below are the top 25 Texas high school football teams, according to the Massey Ratings, as of Sept. 6.
If the last two weekends proved anything, it's that Allen is back. Behind standout performances from 2029 QB Ty Snell and the entire Eagles defense, Allen has knocked off powerhouses Duncanville and DeSoto to open the season, 50-6. Snell passed for four TD on seven attempts, three of those scores going to fellow 2029 WR Zach Williams. Allen held a 28-0 lead at halftime with the defense setting a strong pace in this one.
North Crowley earned another statement victory in the early season — a 40-10 win over fellow Dallas Metroplex powerhouse Southlake Carroll. After the Dragons took a 7-6 lead early, the Panthers scored 21 unanswered points and cruised in the second half. North Texas commit G'Yrell Smith rushed for 96 yards on 11 touches, and QBs Jacob Torres and Jahzeel McCradic combined for two TD passes.
The defending state champs did not miss a beat in a physical tilt vs. Louisiana powerhouse John Curtis. The Mustangs came away with 27-17 win on the road at Our Lady of Lourdes Stadium in Lafayette — after adding two fourth-quarter scores and separating late in the contest. QB Kaleb Taylor threw a TD pass to Jaden Kendrick and Jemarkeus Houston ran for a 14-yard TD to deliver North Shore the impressiveo out-of-state win.
Guyer remained unbeaten on Friday night as the Wildcats notched their 200th program win. The outstanding Guyer defense featuring arguably the state's most talented group of defensive linemen (Zane Rowe (Oregon); Khyren Haywood (Texas Tech); Darrien Neal (TCU); Logan Lokey (2028) held Melissa to less than 100 yards of total offense. First-year starting QB Carter Morgan was terrific — finishing 21-of-29 for 237 yards with a pass TD and a rush TD.

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing the Real Madrid attacker Endrick.
According to reports via CaughtOffside, they are preparing a January move to sign the talented young Brazilian, and they could submit an offer of around €60-70 million.
The Brazilian attacker has attracted the attention of top clubs in recent months, but Real Madrid chose to keep him at the club during the summer transfer window. The 20-year-old was on loan at Lyon during the second half of last season, and he was exceptional for the French outfit. Endrick had 16 goal contributions last season.
There is no doubt that he is a phenomenal talent with a bright future, and he could develop into a key player for Manchester United. They could use more quality and depth in the final third, and Endrick could be a solid long-term acquisition.
Joshua Zirkzee has been linked with a move away from Manchester United, and they will need to replace him properly. It remains to be seen whether they can get a deal for the Brazilian international.

Davis says the NBA picked him over other retired players mentioned in the investigation, leading him to spend nearly two years in prison in addition to three years of supervision. Big Baby expressed his frustration with the process that led to his imprisonment while others mentioned in the indictment, including his former Boston Celtics teammates Kendrick Perkins and Tony Allen, didn't, he explained, per Locked In with Ian Bick. "They literally wanted to make me out to be an example. There was a lot of people that got investigated," Davis said. "Kendrick Perkins, you see him on ESPN. Tony Allen—he was literally the third person on the indictment, with his wife. He's not walking in jail. Darius Miles—he's not walking in jail. And these guys got money, like thousands of dollars. How'd I end up in jail and these guys are on probation/walking free; their whole life is still intact. "I think the NBA let the feds pick who they wanted to choose. 180 people were investigated/supenoed. We didn't hear about all those people. We just heard about the 22 people that got caught, or that got jammed in the situation. A lot of people pleaded out. They didn't go to jail. They didn't even go get time served."

Roma's transfer market doesn't stop with the September bell.
Discussions and evaluations have already resumed at Trigoria ahead of January, with Tony D'Amico working to anticipate moves and provide Gian Piero Gasperini with new reinforcements.
Free agents are still being considered for the wing, while the project for the attack is decidedly more ambitious.
The goal is to close a major deal early and then bring the new signing to the capital as soon as the transfer window officially reopens. And a name already being pursued over the summer is gaining traction: Endrick.
The Brazilian Real Madrid player had been in Roma's sights for months, before any discussions were postponed until the winter transfer window. Now, however, according to a report from Corriere dello Sport, the situation is changing, and the Giallorossi are gaining momentum.

PITTSBURG, Kan. — The Missouri Southern State University Lions volleyball team (2-4) opened play at the Pittsburg State University Gorilla Classic with mixed results in their first two matches.
On Wednesday night, the Lions put together a dominant performance, sweeping the Southwestern Oklahoma State University Bulldogs 3-0 (25-14, 25-23, 25-12).
Southern controlled the match through the early going of Set 1 and built a 16-7 lead off a Reagan Ashby service ace. The led swelled to 11 at 21-10 off an Olivia Burmeister kill and the set ended at 25-14 off a kill by Kaelyn Kendrick.
Set 2 was the most competitive of the match. Grace Gardner got the ball rolling for the Lions with two straight kills to open the set. Three straight errors by the Bulldogs saw Southern go up 5-0 early.
Southern held its biggest lead of the set at 17-10 off a Kendrick kill, but SWOSU (2-3) battled back to within a point at 23-22 off a Libbie Hughs ace. A Gardner kill stopped the bleeding and Southern hung on for the 25-23 win.

A week after a controversial commercial depicting a woman being shoved to the ground by a man after she tried to pull a driver out of a golf bag, the brand quickly removed the ad due to viewer backlash. Following the incident, two individuals responsible for the project have been fired.
On Wednesday, Good Good Golf CEO Matt Kendrick and President Joe Flannery were relieved of their duties, according to an internal email circulated among Good Good Golf employees. The company's Chief Financial Officer, Alex Puchala, stated in the email that co-founder and original investor Nahid Giga will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.
"This is a difficult day for the entire Good Good family," Puchala wrote in the email. "Matt helped build something extraordinary that exceeded all expectations and continues to bring countless new fans to the sport. What began as a small group of friends playing golf is now a growing global community."
Garrett Clark, a brand co-founder and the actor who shoved former Indiana Hoosiers golfer Alexis Miestowski in the ad, will remain with the company.
"Garrett and the creator team will keep doing what they do best," Puchala continued in the email. "Making great content and engaging our fans who are eager to see and hear from us."

Good Good Golf CEO Matt Kendrick and president Joe Flannery have been removed after the company's recent involvement in a controversial ad, according to multiple reports.
Callaway Golf, one of the more notable brands, decided to end its partnership with the YouTube Golf Group, which recently produced the ad in late August.
Good Good co-founder Nahid Giga will serve as the interim CEO, according to Business Insider.
The ad proved to be controversial as a man was shown shoving a woman to the ground as she was attempting to grab a golf club from her bag. The advertisement was meant to serve as a parody of the movie "Obsession."
The ad received backlash because it drew parallels to domestic violence and abuse.

After dropping the opener, the Chattanooga Lookouts evened the Knoxville Smokies' final home series of the regular season with a 5-1 win Sept. 2 at Covenant Health Park.
With the Smokies clinging to a one-run lead in the seventh inning, Lookouts center fielder Austin Hendrick blasted a three-run home run off reliever Marino Santy. It gave the Lookouts their first lead of the series and ruined five scoreless innings from Knoxville starter Brody McCullough.
The Smokies' offense offered little support, managing just four hits and a lone first-inning run.
"It's just a good job by their pitching staff of holding us at bay," Smokies manager Lance Rymel told Knox News. "Just didn't get much going offensively tonight."

Good Good Golf CEO Matt Kendrick and president Joe Flannery have left the brand in the wake of their advertisement with Callaway that generated massive backlash in recent weeks.
Kendrick and Flannery left the company this week, according to multiple reports. An internal memo, via The Athletic, stated that early investor and co-founder Nahid Giga is planning to step in as the company's interim CEO. Both Kendrick and Flannery, according to the memo, left the company of their own accord.
Their departures are just the latest after the Good Good Golf-Callaway advertisement that was released last month. The company released an ad that showed one of its co-founders, Garrett Clark, shoving a female employee to the ground as she attempted to touch the driver in his golf bag.
The ad was removed the next day, and both Good Good and Callaway have since apologized. Callaway eventually ended its partnership with Good Good, and announced that it would donate $1 million to charities aimed at preventing domestic violence. Callaway director of content and production Alex Upegui is leaving the company.
The PGA Tour has since split with Good Good, too, and the Good Good Championship this fall will have another ******* le sponsor.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Earlier this offseason, it had appeared as if freshman Salesi Moa and Texas transfer Jaime Ffrench each had the inside edge to be Michigan football's No. 3 wide receiver. Then, early in fall camp, it had appeared as if freshman Travis Johnson was surging. However, on Monday night, head coach Kyle Whittingham surprised many by naming junior receiver Channing Goodwin as the third guy behind Andrew Marsh and JJ Buchanan.
Goodwin opened up the season last year as a starter opposite Semaj Morgan. But drops in his first four games relegated him to the bench in favor of then-freshman Andrew Marsh. However, with a new coaching staff having fresh eyes, mixed with Goodwin finding his groove in fall camp, he emerged as the next option behind the starting duo playing out wide.
"Channing, we didn't have him in the spring because he was out coming back from his surgery," Beck said. "So it was really great getting him back in this fall camp. And he's just really steady, knows what to do, very football intelligent, really dependable and consistent."
While Goodwin will be heavily featured, he won't be the only other receiver to see the field. The aforementioned trio -- Moa, Ffrench, Johnson -- will also play, along with Kendrick Bell and perhaps Jamar Browder or Jacob Washington.
Beck said that the 'starters' are the trio of Marsh, Buchanan, and Goodwin, but that doesn't mean they'll always be the first players on the field for the first offensive down of any given game.

The Baltimore Ravens placed 10 rookies on their initial active roster, with eight members of the 2026 draft class joined by undrafted free agents Joe **** nano and Ethan Burke. Baltimore selected 11 players during the 2026 NFL draft. Seventh-round picks Rayshaun Benny and Evan Beerntsen were waived, while fifth-round running back Adam Randall was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return.
The active rookie group includes potential starters, rotational players, developmental prospects and two undrafted players who forced their way onto the team with productive preseason performances.

The No. 14 overall pick is projected to start at right guard. Ioane gives Baltimore a powerful interior blocker who can become a foundational piece of the offensive line alongside Ronnie Stanley, Roger Rosengarten and John Simpson.
Baltimore selected Young with the No. 45 pick in the second round. He joins a deep edge group featuring Trey Hendrickson, Tavius Robinson, Mike Green and fellow rookie Ethan Burke.

Arsenal's striker search continues to generate noise, but the latest update has brought some clarity around one name that had started to gather momentum. According to Caught Offside, Endrick is not part of **** nal's current plans, despite the rumours that have circulated in recent days.
The key line is unambiguous. "Arsenal are not working on a deal to sign Endrick – the Brazilian is not a target for **** nal at all, and the striker is going to stay at Real Madrid." For **** nal supporters watching a crowded forward market unfold, that is a significant update. Endrick is one of Europe's most high-profile young attackers, but this report makes it clear that a move to north London is not under consideration.
There is also a firm stance from Madrid. "The expectation is absolutely for Endrick to continue there, the decision has been made by the club, with the management, with the president Florentino Perez." That suggests there is no meaningful opening for suitors, whether from the Premier League or elsewhere.
One interesting detail is that **** nal were not the only English club linked. "Liverpool tried three weeks ago to understand the situation of Endrick, asking about potential conditions of the deal, to buy or to get the player on loan." Yet Real Madrid's response appears to have shut down any possibility of movement. "But the answer from Real Madrid was very clear – they don't want Endrick to go."
That leaves **** nal looking elsewhere, with the report adding that "Arsenal keep waiting for the Julian Alvarez situation, depending on what the player decides to do." In practical terms, that points towards patience rather than panic. **** nal's recruitment team seem prepared to hold their position while Alvarez's future becomes clearer.

Regardless, "Yung Money" supports the change and hopes to see more adjustments to the NextGen car in the future.
During a media session on Friday at Daytona, Larson said he is looking forward to trying something new in Saturday's ****** e Zero Sugar 400.
Because of the NextGen car, Larson said, things have gotten repetitive in NASCAR. In the weeks following Daytona, the Hendrick Motorsports star would not mind seeing different rules packages for other tracks in an effort to "spice things up."

The Rochester Red Wings continued their postseason push Friday night, rallying from an early two-run deficit to beat the Buffalo Bisons 5-3 at ESL Ballpark and move into a tie for first place in the International League's second-half standings.
Rochester improved to 79-49 and pulled even with Indianapolis atop the International League's second-half race thanks to a four-run fourth inning fueled by doubles from Cayden Wallace and Liover Peguero. Chandler Champlain earned the win with 4.1 innings of relief before Yovanny Cruz recorded his fifth save.
The Bisons broke through in the top of the fourth inning after Yohendrick Piñango singled and scored on Jay Harry's RBI double. Harry later came home on Lenyn Sosa's RBI single, giving Buffalo a 2-0 lead.
Starter Isaac Lyon was charged with both runs, with Champlain entering in relief to record the final out of the inning.
The Red Wings responded immediately in the bottom half.

After winning the first two games of the new season, against Espanyol on the road and Real Sociedad at home, Real Madrid are set to face the newly-promoted Malaga in their next La Liga game, which is scheduled to take place at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.
The Merengues have already been training for this game for some days, and Jose Mourinho held the latest training session ahead of this game on Saturday. As has been the case since the start of the season, the Portuguese coach will remain without several players, including Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, Raul Asencio, Aurelien Tchouameni, Thiago Pitarch, Rodrygo, and Endrick.
Tchouameni and Endrick's cases are not as severe as those of the other mentioned players, but they are still not at a competitive fitness level, and thus are highly likely to miss the game against Malaga. The other players continue to recover from their longer-term injuries. As a result, Mourinho called up several players from the academy, including Sergio Mestre, Mario Rivas, Cestero, and Alexis Ciria to fill up his ranks.
Meanwhile, Diario AS reports that there was another surprising presence at Valdebebas during this training session, i.e., the Real Madrid legend, Sergio Ramos. The former Merengue defender and captain visited the club's training facilities during this session.
The Spaniard is currently without a club after having ended his time with the Mexican side Monterrey. Several years after his departure from the Spanish capital, he still remains one of the most beloved players in the history of the white club.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed a player's fate and we believe that's fantastic news for Liverpool. The Reds can react.
Liverpool have been in the market for a new forward this summer. It's proven a massive struggle to land one, however, especially as a direct replacement for Mohamed Salah.
The market on the right simply hasn't been there. Liverpool tried for Yan Diomande but failed to get him, with the Ivorian ending up at Real Madrid.
That, however, presented another opportunity. Endrick is a player we rate highly here at Anfield Watch and we've gone in-depth as to why here.
The Brazilian is a rare talent, potentially in the mould of Roberto Firmino but also one who doesn't appear to have a place at Real Madrid. Not after Diomande and Carlos Espi arrived, anyway.

Several former Minnesota Vikings players have entered the podcasting ***** e. Ben Leber has his show "Sound the Horn," alongside Cy Amundson, while Antony Barr and Eric Kendricks have "Bent Outta Shape."
Nonetheless, Vikings fans will need to expand their bandwidth for podcasts, as former wideout Adam Thielen is also launching his own. Moreover, Thielen's show called "Dialed" isn't sticking to just football; he intends to cover other sports as well and aspects of life.
"Just showing how guys get dialed, right?" Thielen said during an Aug. 28 appearance on "Good Morning Football." "I always talk about, like, man, I got to go get dialed in, whether it's golf, football, what have you, being a husband, being a father.
"There's always improvement, always something to work on to get truly dialed. So this podcast dives into male and female athletes, performers, entertainers, how they got to the top of the top and how they stayed there.
"A lot of them are 10, 12, 15-year professional athletes. And how did they do that? And then at the end, it always ties back to golf. So why do you play golf? Why do you love golf? Does it help you in your sport? Does it not?"
