Real Madrid Transfer News Roundup: Los Blancos suffer Martin Baturina blow, club plan Endrick loan exit, and more - November 6, 2024

Real Madrid suffered a 3-1 defeat to AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday, November 5. Vinicius Junior's first-half penalty proved a mere consolation as the Italian giants ran riot at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Meanwhile, Los Blancos have suffered a setback in their plans to sign Croatian midfielder Martin Baturina. Elsewhere, the Spanish champions are ready to send Endrick out on loan in the winter.

On that note, let's look at the major Real Madrid transfer stories from November 6, 2024.

According to Sky Sports Germany, Martin Baturina has turned down the chance to join Real Madrid. The LaLiga champions are looking for midfield reinforcements ahead of 2025, with Luka Modric already in the final phase of his career.

Toni Kroos' retirement has also opened up a big gap in the middle of the park and Los Blancos have apparently identified Baturina as an option to address the issue. The Croatian plays for Dinamo Zagreb and has been quite impressive so far.

Baturina has registered two goals and seven assists from 16 games across competitions this season. His efforts have convinced Real Madrid, who offered the player a five-year deal.

Los Blancos are ready to sign the player and loan him back to Zagreb to continue his development. However, the 21-year-old has turned them down, as he wants to move to the Bundesliga in January or next summer.

Real Madrid are planning to send Endrick out on loan at the turn of the year, according to Fichajes. The highly-rated Brazilian forward made his long-awaited move to the Santiago Bernabeu this summer.

However, he has struggled for game-time under Carlo Ancelotti this season. The 18-year-old has registered two goals and one assist from nine games but has started only once.

Endrick has tasted just 107 minutes of first-team action for the LaLiga giants, who are now concerned about his development. Los Blancos are now willing to send him out on loan at the turn of the year to gain valuable first-team experience ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus are eyeing him with interest, so he won't be short of options if he leaves Real Madrid.

According to acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano, Saudi Arabia are planning to return for Vinicius Junior. The Brazilian forward was wanted in the Middle East over the summer but apparently turned down a massive offer in favor of staying at Santiago Bernabeu.

However, Saudi Arabia are unwilling to give up on Vinicius, as they believe he is a special player. They are convinced his arrival could be a historic moment for the league and are willing to return with an even bigger proposal.

The 24-year-old is apparently unsettled at Real Madrid amid the Ballon d'Or fiasco. While Los Blancos have no desire to let him go, Saudi Arabia could tempt him to consider a move with another lucrative deal. However, they have yet to initiate contact for a move.
