OL: Corentin Tolisso has wise advice for Endrick

Last Sunday against Strasbourg (1-3) in Ligue 1, Endrick really struggled.

Speaking to the media this Friday, OL captain Corentin Tolisso offered his advice to the young Brazilian talent.

"I have a good relationship with him. He has enormous talent and you need to give him a certain amount of freedom. The most important thing is that he understands the system the coach wants to put in place, and he’s understood it very well. As captain, I’m supported by Moussa, Clinton, and Nico. Our job is to talk to the group, to make sure the tempo doesn’t drop. We can’t lose focus or start thinking differently. We have to stay concentrated, want to win matches, do things for the team, and individually, we’ll be rewarded. He’s young, and he learned from what happened to him in Nantes (red card, editor’s note). Going through that could help him for the match at the Vélodrome. They’re going to put pressure on him, and that’s exactly when we’ll see if he’s really progressed," the Lyon midfielder said.
