TA: Enderrick’s loan to Lyon includes a number of appearances clause, and Real Madrid will bear part of his salary

According to The Athletic, Endrick's loan to Lyon includes a number of appearance clauses, and Real Madrid will bear part of the salary.

TA reported that Lyon is in in-depth negotiations with Real Madrid regarding Endrick's loan, and Real Madrid is expected to bear part of the forward's remaining salary this season. According to a source involved in the negotiations, the agreement will include a clause: if Endrick fails to play a certain number of games for Lyon, Lyon will need to pay a fee to Real Madrid. Endrick hopes to get enough game time to be named to the World Cup squad.

The reason Real Madrid waited until now to be willing to rent out was to prevent Endrick's situation from changing before December. Now that they realize that the forward is not in Alonso's plans, they have decided to continue negotiations with Lyon. The club is disappointed with his lack of opportunities this season. It has not yet been officially signed in case Endrick is injured or there are any changes before the winter window opens, but the deal is expected to be completed in December.
