Brazilian wonderkid, Endrick has been crowned Ligue 1 Player of the Month for February 2026, marking an extraordinary achievement in his very first full month competing in the French top flight.

The 19-year-old forward, who joined Lyon from Real Madrid in the summer of 2025, has hit the ground running.

In his opening Ligue 1 appearances of 2026, Endrick delivered a string of standout performances.

The award, voted on by a combination of media, fans, and league officials, recognises his immediate adaptation, maturity beyond his years, and electric contribution to Lyon’s attacking play during a crucial phase of the season.

“Endrick is Ligue 1’s Player of the Month for January,” League 1 confirmed on its official X handle.

The accolade comes amid growing hype around Endrick as one of the brightest young talents in world football, with many already tipping him for major individual honours by season’s end.
