Loan comes after the player did not have space at Real Madrid with Xabi Alonso
The Brazilian will present himself to Lyon on January 1st and will wear the number 9 shirt. Loaned by for the French team, he should stay until the end of the season, in July. The loan comes after the player did not have space at Real Madrid with Xabi Alonso. He has played 99 minutes in three games, just one as a starter, this season. At Lyon, the contract stipulates that he will have at least 25 appearances in the starting lineup.
Despite the transfer, two contractual triggers that could benefit Palmeiras remain active. The goals that remain in force involve two individual awards:
- Golden Boy, awarded by the Italian magazine Tuttosport to the best player under 21 in European football; and the
- Kopa Award, which is also given to the best U21 athlete, but by France Football (the same as the Ballon d’Or).
If he wins one of them, Endrick will earn another 1 million euros (R$ 6.4 million, at current prices) for Palmeiras.
So far, Endrick has already activated three triggers that make Real Madrid transfer values to Palmeiras. The amount reaches 955 thousand euros (R$6.2 million) of the possible 12.5 million euros (R$81 million). This represents 7% of the total.
