No Green, No Problem: Camavinga’s Lighthearted Tip to Endrick in Lyon
1 January 2026
Endrick’s Lyon loan and Camavinga's unusual advice
Endrick is leaning on his former Real Madrid teammate Eduardo Camavinga to quickly settle in with Olympique Lyonnais, where he is on loan until the season's end.
In a video posted by Lyon on Thursday, the 19-year-old Brazilian forward was shown taking his first steps inside the club’s training complex, accompanied by technical director Mathieu Louis-Jean.
Camavinga's message and a color warning
The teenager revealed a "special" tip from Camavinga: the message was sent via Instagram and included a reminder about Lyon's historic rival, Saint-Étienne, with the quip to never wear green.
Endrick, who has 14 caps for Brazil and three goals, arrived in Lyon a week ago and began full-team training on Thursday. His Lyon debut is planned for January 11 against Lille in the Coupe de France's Round of 16.
Punchline 1: If Camavinga's tip were any greener, it would need a rainforest to be understood.
Punchline 2: Endrick's motto for now: red and white on the pitch, green off it—confidence never goes out of fashion.
