Real Madrid forward Endrick moves to Lyon on short-term loan

Lyon have formally announced the acquisition of Real Madrid forward Endrick on a loan basis until the conclusion of the current season.

The transaction, initially reported earlier this week, was finalized on December 23.

The 19-year-old Brazilian international joined Real Madrid from Palmeiras in July 2024 following an agreement established 18 months prior. After making 22 league appearances in his debut 2024-25 campaign, Endrick’s playing time has been restricted to three appearances across all competitions under manager Xabi Alonso this term.

The loan arrangement includes a fee structure that could reach €1 million. Endrick will join a Lyon side currently positioned fifth in Ligue 1, with their next match scheduled for January 3 against AS Monaco. The club also leads its Europa League group phase with 15 points from six matches.
