Real Madrid are already gearing up for a busy summer transfer window following their recent setbacks, as reports suggest President Florentino Perez would spearhead the club's summer planning himself.

Apparently, the Whites are planning a major rebuild before the start of the next season, with a view to having a squad with ample depth, similar to Zinedine Zidane's Los Blancos side back in the 2016-17 campaign.

During this campaign, both Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa seemed to lack a plan B in clutch moments, and the availability of quality options on the bench is seen as a major problem for Los Blancos this season.

As a result, the Merengues would be keen to address these issues during the upcoming transfer window, and they might already have options in their own books, with Nico Paz, Jacobo Ramon, and Endrick poised for a return to the Bernabeu next season.

Los Blancos are undoubtedly in the driving seat regarding the future of their talented youngsters, but they definitely cannot drive away interest from other clubs.

Reports of Premier League clubs, Arsenal and Chelsea, being interested in Endrick were making the rounds recently, with the Brazilian striker's resurgence since his January move to Lyon.

Now, according to TeamTalk, Real Madrid have made their intentions clear regarding the future of their highly rated youngster, as Los Blancos are keen on bringing Endrick back to Madrid after the end of the loan spell at the French club when the ongoing season culminates.

The report suggests that Madrid has made it clear to both English clubs that they are interested in the 19-year-old forward.

Endrick found it difficult to get minutes under Xabi Alonso during the first six months at the Bernabeu this season. As a result, the club management, along with the player, decided to pursue a loan move in which he would be a starter and further develop his skills before returning to his parent club.

Since moving to Lyon, Endrick has already scored seven goals and provided seven assists for the French club in 18 appearances, whereas the Brazilian scored the same number of goals for Los Blancos in 40 appearances, although with significantly fewer minutes with the Whites than with Lyon.

The Merengues are now adamant about bringing in the youngster, with plans to play him more regularly next season, and Endrick is seemingly on the same page with the Los Blancos management, as he is poised to write history at the Bernabeu in the royal white shirt.
