At Real Madrid, they consider the way Xabi Alonso handled Endrick's situation to be among the biggest mistakes of his tenure as first-team coach. The Spanish coach barely gave him a handful of minutes with the Brazilian, and at times, he was humiliated by being warmed up during matches and not getting even a second on the field. After that, Endrick did not hesitate: he decided to leave to show his potential.

The point is that Endrick arrived at Olympique de Lyon, and now he is the footballer of the moment. The Brazilian forward scored goals, became a key player, and even has a chance to qualify for the 2026 World Cup with the Brazil national team.

In that context, Pedro Fonseca, Lyon's coach, has already asked the board to begin negotiations with Real Madrid to explore the possibility of extending the agreed loan. The loan that Lyon agreed with Real Madrid is for six months, and he must return to Spain in the middle of the year; however, Endrick's destination could be different.

Throughout these weeks, Endrick has been linked to a possible offer from Chelsea, but the reality is that the one who has begun to move to find out his situation is Paris Saint-Germain, according to BitBol. The Brazilian has dazzled Luis Enrique, and he understands that the team currently does not have a footballer of that style.

As if that were not enough, the situation of Dembele gets worse every day, and everything suggests that nothing will change because the Frenchman wants to have a salary of $60 million per year. Dembele has stated internally that, as a Ballon d'Or winner, he deserves a contract befitting that status. At PSG, they are open to negotiation, but the economic differences seem insurmountable.

With that condition, PSG considers Endrick an important footballer in Luis Enrique's system and believes he can finally show all his potential at a club filled with stars. According to the cited outlet, PSG is considering paying $100 million for Endrick and signing him permanently.

This is not the first time Paris has been interested in Endrick, since they wanted to sign him when he was at Palmeiras. At that time, Endrick rejected Chelsea and PSG because his only goal was to play for Real Madrid. Now the story is different, and Endrick puts the Spanish club against the ropes in the next transfer market.
