Real Madrid’s decision to loan out Endrick has proven to be a masterstroke for the club, as the youngster has truly found his footing at Olympique Lyon.
In just four matches, the Brazilian international has racked up four goals and an assist, emerging as an instant hit for Lyon.
This is in contrast to his time at Real Madrid, where he struggled to gain any game time during the first half of the campaign, although injuries, too, hampered his progress a bit.
According to One Football, as relayed by Defensa Central, Endrick’s performances have not gone unnoticed, with at least three Premier League clubs eyeing a move for the Brazilian international.
The clubs in question are Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United and Sunderland, all of who are keen on getting their hands on the Real Madrid sensation.

Both Leeds and Sunderland see Endrick as an excellent long-term investment, while Tottenham see him as someone who can make an immediate impact.
There were even speculation that Lyon have already started thinking about extending the loan deal for Endrick as well.
However, signing Endrick on a permanent deal or even on a loan deal next season is merely a pipe dream for any of these clubs.
That is because Real Madrid have no desire to offload the Brazilian international once he returns to the Santiago Bernabeu after the end of his loan spell at Lyon.
Real Madrid have been mightily impressed with Endrick’s performance at Lyon and they see him as a long-term prospect for the club.
Endrick, for his part, wants to succeed at the club but is ready to seek another loan exit next summer if Real Madrid have no plans for him in the first team next season.
