Overview
- Both clubs announced the loan on Dec. 23, with Endrick set to join Lyon’s squad on Dec. 29 and the transfer becoming official when the window opens on Jan. 1.
- Lyon will pay a reported €1 million fee and cover roughly half of the striker’s wages, and there is no purchase option, with a return to Madrid expected in June.
- The French club is working on registration for early January, though reports differ on his availability for the Jan. 3 match at Monaco under French registration rules.
- Endrick pushed for regular minutes after limited involvement at Real Madrid this season, with multiple reports linking the move to his bid for a Brazil call-up in 2026.
- The 19-year-old has logged only about 99 minutes across three appearances under Xabi Alonso this campaign, a drop from last season’s usage, prompting a developmental loan.
