OL Mercato sees Endrick eyeing Ligue 1 move away from Lyon

OL Mercato 20‑year‑old Brazilian forward Endrick could be back in the Ligue 1 picture this winter, although not necessarily with Lyon. The striker, who spent the second half of the 2025‑26 campaign on loan at Olympique Lyonnais, is now linked with a January move away from Real Madrid.

Loan spell and limited minutes

Endrick joined Olympique Lyonnais on loan for the latter part of the 2025‑26 season, netting eight goals and providing eight assists. After returning to Real Madrid, he has featured in only four matches this season, raising doubts about his role in the Spanish capital.

European clubs monitoring Endrick

According to information from Ekrem Konur, PSG is among the clubs keeping a close eye on the Brazilian, alongside Manchester United, AS Roma and AC Milan. The same source, identified as KONUR on Twitter, highlighted the interest as a response to Endrick’s versatility and the need to replace the injured Khvicha Kvaratskhelia at Paris Saint‑Germain.

With competition for places intensifying at Real Madrid, a new loan in the January 2027 window has not been ruled out. Endrick’s representatives have indicated they remain open to all possibilities, including a return to Ligue 1.

Paris Saint-Germain vs Lyon match postponed due to riots in Paris

For Olympique Lyonnais supporters, the prospect of seeing Endrick back in Ligue 1 is tantalising, even if he does not wear the Lyonnais shirt. A Parisian destination would generate as much buzz as a homecoming, given his previous spell between the Rhône and Saône.

José Mourinho’s assessment will be crucial; more minutes at Real Madrid could diminish the likelihood of a winter departure. Should the Brazilian fail to secure regular playing time, several European clubs stand ready to act before the transfer window closes.

The coming weeks will therefore determine whether Endrick’s next Ligue 1 chapter unfolds in Paris rather than Lyon. All eyes remain on his performances as the winter market approaches.
