In his debut, against Lille, in the French Cup, Endrick had already started, scoring the winning goal in a 2-1 victory. Last Sunday, the player assisted Abner Vinícius’ goal. The brilliant start to his career at Lyon has earned the Brazilian praise. The team’s coach, Paulo Fonseca, highlighted the striker’s performance in the duel against Brest.
“He did good things, especially in individual situations. He’s a unique player,” said Paulo Fonseca, predicting room for improvement for Endrick. “He still needs to improve physically, be more intense and consistent during the match. We cannot forget that he had barely played this season and is only 19 years old”, added the commander. Endrick valued the first contact he had with Lyon fans, at the Groupama Stadium.
“The fans were fantastic today, they didn’t stop shouting and singing. It was the perfect match”, declared the striker. “Of course I always want to score to help the team, but if I don’t score, my goal is to help the team defensively, with an assist… That’s what I did with the assist for Abner, who scored a great goal. I’m happy for him”, he continued.
Endrick is on loan at Lyon from Real Madrid until the end of the European season. There is no purchase option at the end of the loan agreement.
