Lyon news

Manchester City’s summer signing Rayan Cherki has long been hailed as one of the most natural talents in world football, but former Lyon teammate Remy Riou has shed light on the frustrating side of the playmaker’s game. Despite being described as a freestyle football player similar to Ronaldinho, Riou believes Cherki’s tendency to overcomplicate things often hampered his efficiency during their time together in France.

Brazilian prodigy Endrick has been warned that he must curb his individualistic tendencies after a drop in form at Lyon. Despite a scintillating start to life in Ligue 1, the Real Madrid loanee is currently enduring a goal drought that has drawn scrutiny from fans and pundits alike, including French World Cup winner Samuel Umtiti. Concerns are growing that the teenager is reverting to the same erratic habits that limited his impact in Spain.

Manchester United legend Patrice Evra has urged his former club to make a bold move to sign Brazilian teenage sensation Endrick. The highly gifted attacker is currently starring in France for Lyon, on loan from Real Madrid, and Evra believes he would be a great fit for the Red Devils.

The Endrick show continues to captivate Ligue 1, but even a masterclass from the Real Madrid loanee wasn't enough to stop a resurgent Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from snatching the headlines. In a pulsating clash at the Stade Velodrome, the Brazilian starlet showcased exactly why Los Blancos were so desperate to secure his signature, providing a pair of sublime assists. However, the night ultimately belonged to the veteran Aubameyang, whose late brace turned the game on its head to secure a 3-2 victory for Marseille.

At the very start of the year, it looked like Endrick's dream of making Brazil's World Cup squad was dead in the water. The Real Madrid youngster only played 99 minutes for the club in the first half of the season, with then-Blancos boss Xabi Alonso favouring homegrown forward Gonzalo Garcia ahead of him, and a move away became inevitable in the winter transfer window.

The honeymoon period for Endrick in France appears to be well and truly over. Despite a sensational start to life at Lyon, the Real Madrid loanee found himself at the centre of a storm following a poor performance in a 3-1 defeat to Strasbourg on Sunday. The 19-year-old, who previously looked untouchable in Ligue 1, was hauled through the coals by former France national team manager Raymond Domenech, who did not hold back in his assessment of the Brazilian's contributions at the Stade de la Meinau.

Endrick’s highly anticipated loan spell at Lyon hit a major stumbling block this weekend. After arriving from Real Madrid with immense expectations, the Brazilian prodigy initially took Ligue 1 by storm. However, Sunday's lacklustre display against Strasbourg caused some concern, leaving manager Paulo Fonseca thoroughly unimpressed as he searches for immediate tactical solutions to unlock the teenager.

Brazilian starlet Endrick has revealed the advice he received from Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe before he headed to Ligue 1 side Lyon on loan. The youngster has also admitted he has been surprised by the start he has made to life in France after making an instant impact in the French top flight, including scoring a hat-trick in a victory over Metz.

Real Madrid-owned Endrick, who is currently enjoying a loan spell at Ligue 1 side Lyon, is being tipped to seal a “very special” transfer to Manchester United. The Brazilian wonderkid has found the going tough at his parent club, amid fierce competition for places, and a permanent move away from Santiago Bernabeu is being speculated on for the summer of 2026.

Lyon boss Paulo Fonseca insists that striker Endrick needs to learn from his red card after the on-loan forward was dismissed during OL's 1-0 win at Nantes last weekend. The teenage striker was shown his marching orders on the hour mark in the narrow victory at the Stade de la Beaujoire last weekend which extended their winning run to six matches ahead of tonight's game against Nice.
