OL: Marquinhos fired up about Endrick

PSG captain Marquinhos has spoken out about Endrick's impressive form on loan at OL.

On Wednesday night, following the PSG vs. Newcastle clash (1-1), Marquinhos took time to speak with Brazilian media. The defender seized the opportunity to discuss the case of Endrick, who has been outstanding in OL colors. "We know how tough it is to leave Brazil and arrive in Europe. He’s a kid who deserves it," he told TNT Sports.

Endrick has managed to integrate into a new squad and also prove he can be decisive time and again. After netting a hat-trick against Metz last week (2-5), he also lit up the Coupe de France against LOSC (1-2). "He had some difficulties there, he didn’t play as much as he had hoped. We hope he can make his way back to the national team as well," Marquinhos added.
