Endrick to join Lyon on six-month loan after limited minutes at Real Madrid | OneFootball

According to L'Équipe, OL and Real Madrid have agreed a six-month loan for Endrick starting one January.

The move will allow him to make around 20 appearances for Lyon across league and cup fixtures during the second half of the season.

Despite Lyon’s tight finances, the deal was set up by early groundwork. Sporting director Matthieu Louis-Jean made contact in October, building ties with the player’s agents and the Brazilian company Roc Nation.

The opening also followed Endrick’s limited minutes at Real Madrid. He watched several Lyon matches and was convinced by their approach.

The switch gives the centre-forward a platform to play regularly and try to catch the Brazil coach’s eye ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
