Los Blancos have severed ties with Xabi Alonso, leading to questions being asked of whether a recall clause could be triggered in Endrick’s loan. He is, however, expecting to see out the 2025-26 campaign with Lyon.
He said when asked about returning to Madrid: “I just got here! This is not the time to think about going back. At this moment, I don’t need to worry about anything except Lyon. My relationship with Real Madrid hasn’t changed at all. Right up until the day I travelled to Lyon, the club gave me all the support I needed.”
Endrick will retrace steps to the Spanish capital over the summer and will hope to have done enough by then to convince his parent club that he should be playing a more prominent role in 2026-27.
Future outings could come on the flanks, with questions already being asked of how long fellow countrymen Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo will be spending at the Bernabeu - with transfer talk continuing to rage around their respective futures.
