Indrick Felipe Shines at Lyon: A Fresh Spark Ahead of Monaco Clash
3 January 2026
Indrick's Integration at Lyon
The Portuguese coach Paulo Fonseca, head coach of Olympique Lyonnais, says Brazilian striker Indrick, the club's new forward, is adapting well after joining on loan from Real Madrid in January.
Lyon is preparing for a fiery Ligue 1 clash with Monaco this Saturday, as part of matchday 17.
Fonseca's Assessment
During the pre-match press conference, Fonseca stated that Indrick is very good, having started training with the squad this week and showing strong form.
“We need Indrick because he is a different kind of player, and the whole squad has welcomed him,” he added.
He also mentioned that Indrick is happy to be with Lyon and that the club is excited to have a player of his quality.
Indrick joined Lyon in January on loan from Real Madrid until the end of the current season.
Punchline 1: If Indrick keeps this up, Lyon might start selling season tickets for a single player’s goals—talk about a hot ROI.
Punchline 2: And if Monaco thinks they can shut him down, they’d better bring extra popcorn—the drama could be worth the showtime.
