Real Madrid have already played 13 matches in all competitions this season, and yet Endrick has not had a single minute of play to put himself under the boots until then. Regular joker under Carlo Ancelotti for his first Spanish year, the young 19-year-old Brazilian striker clearly does not figure in Xabi Alonso’s plans.
In fact, for several weeks now, rumors have been spreading to the other side of the Pyrenees about the boy’s desire to leave. With the French elite and more precisely Marseille as a possible point of departure; OM having come to the information according to the Iberian press. To obtain a loan with a potential purchase option if we are to believe the Iberian press.
In recent hours, however, another avenue has emerged, revealed by transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano. Endrick could well land in Ligue 1 yes, but not necessarily in the Marseille city. It is indeed another Olympics who would have the preference of the auriverde phenomenon.
Agents and a player already won over
During the day this Wednesday, L’Equipe confirmed OL’s interest in the Brazilian international. The Lyonnais looking to fill the offensive void left by a George Mikautadze transferred to Villarreal this summer. Endrick also has the good taste to share the same agents as a certain Malick Fofana within the Roc Nation structure.
The aforementioned sports daily also ensures that Les Gones would be the player’s preference if he were to invest in France in the future. “ Endrick clearly identified that OL was the only European club without a starting center forward, and where a guaranteed place is therefore up for grabs from January 1, 2026 and the opening of the transfer window. This is how he indicated to those around him that his preference was for the moment going to this project, capable of offering him the exposure and playing time necessary to return to the Seleçao, with a view to the 2026 World Cup. », We can read in the pages of L’Equipe.
It remains to be seen whether Lyon – at odds with French football authorities and whose finances remain closely monitored – can afford to attract such an element into its net. Endrick earns 400,000 euros per month at his young age and will not be given away for free by the White House. Already this summer, a paying loan of 5 million euros had been mentioned for a while.
