Endrick to Depart Lyon and Return to Madrid

Brazilian forward Endrick is set to play his final match for Lyon this Sunday against Lens before immediately returning to Madrid. According to Globoesporte, Real Madrid has already informed the player that he is part of their plans for the upcoming season and has granted his request to use the club's facilities to prepare for the World Cup.

With the French championship concluding this weekend, Endrick and his family, including his pregnant wife Gabriely, will relocate to Spain as early as Monday. The expectation is that the player will begin training at the Valdebebas training center from Wednesday onwards, aiming to maintain his fitness.

The Spanish club insisted that the loan agreement with Paulo Fonseca's Lyon not include a purchase option clause, planning to integrate the Brazilian into the main squad without immediate prospects of further transfers.

Endrick's performance in France has been remarkable, contributing to 15 goals (eight goals and seven assists) in just 20 appearances.

After his standout performance in Brazil's victory against Croatia in March, Endrick's inclusion in Carlo Ancelotti's World Cup squad is considered almost a certainty. The official call-up will be announced next Monday in Rio de Janeiro.
