In severe lack of playing time, Endrick’s departure from Real Madrid seems more and more likely this winter. The young Brazilian striker has already chosen his next destination and has opted for the north of the Rhône valley.
Several times associated with Olympique de Marseille, Auriverde should finally commit to Olympique Lyonnais as part of a loan from January. An arrival motivated by his desire to gain minutes in order to compete in the World Cup with the Seleção next summer.
“He will have the opportunity to play immediately”
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano discussed the Endrick case during the latest episode of the Here We Go Podcast. “Endrick believes that OL is the best club for his development, where he will have the opportunity to play immediately. So it would arrive in the first days of January, so as not to waste time. Do not land in the middle or at the end of the winter transfer window. (…) Negotiations are underway. There is a good chance of seeing Endrick join OL”he announced.
The opportunity to follow in the footsteps of Karim Benzema, trained with Les Gones before joining Real Madrid in July 2009, could constitute an important factor in this choice. “Endrick has already spoken to OL coach Paulo Fonseca. He thinks it’s a very fascinating club in terms of vision and history. Benzema played there, and he still has one of Endrick’s idols. So Endrick had some great exchanges.”he added.
