Real Madrid Set to Recall Endrick After Lyon Loan

Overview

• Diario AS, echoed by multiple outlets, reports Madrid has told Endrick he will return from Lyon and be integrated into next season’s squad.
• During his six-month spell at Lyon, the forward earned steady minutes and produced about 18 games with seven goals and around seven assists.
• In a wide-ranging interview with The Guardian, Endrick said he does not want his child to become a footballer and called the sport a harsh environment.
• He also described crying in private during a long recovery from a posterior thigh injury at Real Madrid that cost him games and confidence.
• The 19-year-old and his wife are expecting their first child, a detail covered inconsistently across outlets on the baby’s sex, as he targets Brazil’s World Cup roster to be named in mid-May.
