Endrick racks up major milestones with Lyon in European football | OneFootball

The young Brazilian forward Endrick, just 19 years old, has been making a name for himself in Europe since his arrival at Lyon. On loan from Real Madrid, the player needed less than three months to surpass personal milestones, break records, and establish himself as a key figure in the French team during the second half of the season. His adaptation and immediate performance have attracted attention, with a direct impact on the field.

Impressive Numbers in Few Matches

In 11 matches played for Lyon, Endrick has already accumulated six goals and four assists, totaling ten direct goal involvements. This performance results in an average of one involvement every 88 minutes played.

According to Sofascore data, Endrick leads the Lyon squad in goals and assists since his debut, and is also the under-23 Brazilian player with the most goal involvements in 2026. He even won the Ligue 1 Player of the Month award in his first month in France.

Records and Historic Achievements

The forward has a history of breaking records since his arrival on the European continent. For Real Madrid, he became the youngest South American to score in the Champions League and the youngest foreign player to find the net for the club in the Spanish Championship.

Additionally, he was the first Real player to score five goals in the Copa del Rey since Cristiano Ronaldo and the youngest to wear the club's number 9 jersey.

At Lyon, he scored in all his debuts in official competitions, including Ligue 1, the French Cup, and the Europa League. In knockout games, he directly participated in seven goals in the last eight he started as a starter.

Media Impact and Comparisons with Legends

Even before stepping onto the field for Lyon, Endrick was already breaking records, achieving the highest number of views on the club's official Instagram with his announcement video. On the field, in his second Ligue 1 match, he surpassed a record held by Ronaldo Fenômeno, becoming the youngest Brazilian to score three goals in a single game in European football. Interestingly, in his first two games for Lyon, Endrick already surpassed the total minutes he had accumulated at Real Madrid.

Next Steps Before the National Team

Lyon is preparing for its next match against Le Havre this Sunday (15). This game will be Endrick's last before his call-up by Carlo Ancelotti, scheduled for Monday (16). The forward is on the preliminary list for the Brazilian national team for the March FIFA Date, indicating the continuation of his rise in the football scene.
