Arsenal are being urged to pursue a summer move for Real Madrid teenager Endrick, with club legend Emmanuel Petit publicly advocating for the Brazilian forward to join the Gunners as part of a potential summer overhaul.
Petit, who starred for Arsenal in the 1990s and early 2000s, believes Endrick’s rare blend of talent and physicality could thrive in the Premier League if placed in the “right environment”.
Endrick, 19, currently on loan at Olympique Lyonnais from Real Madrid, has experienced a mixed spell in France after struggling for minutes in Spain. While his career at the Bernabéu has been marked by limited opportunities — often coming off the bench behind a star-studded frontline — his loan move has seen him play more regularly in Ligue 1, showcasing flashes of his prodigious ability.
Speaking on Andy’s Bet Club, Petit described Endrick as a “diamond” who still has room to refine his game but could benefit from a fresh start at Arsenal .
Petit said: “He’s so young, only 19 years old. He’s very talented, very gifted, but he’s like a crazy horse with a lot of energy. On the pitch, sometimes he’s a little bit too selfish. But at the same time, he knows he has huge qualities.
“He needs to be in the right environment to improve and develop because this guy is a diamond. What kind of club would be very good for him? Given his qualities, I would love for him to come to Arsenal, to be honest with you.”
The Gunners have been linked with a number of attacking options this summer as they prepare for another Premier League and European campaign. With Gabriel Jesus expected to depart and other forward positions under evaluation, Arsenal’s recruitment focus is firmly on boosting their firepower — and Endrick now appears on the shortlist of potential targets.
Reports indicate that Arsenal scouts are monitoring Endrick’s development closely and view the forward as a long-term investment capable of adding pace, athleticism and unpredictability to their frontline.
Potential Impact at Arsenal
Should Arsenal pursue Endrick, the move would represent a bold statement of intent from the club’s hierarchy. Arteta’s side have been clear about their ambition to compete at the highest level domestically and in Europe, and adding a high-ceiling talent like Endrick — even one still in the early stages of his career — could align with their long-term strategy
