Beyond the pitch, the impact is also felt in the media. According to AS, OL's matches now attract over 600,000 viewers in Brazil—significantly more than those of Paris Saint-Germain—demonstrating the enduring magnetism of the young prodigy.

The Madrid daily also points to the responsibility of Xabi Alonso, whose management of Endrick at Real Madrid—limiting him to less than 100 minutes of play—is now being questioned in light of the striker's success in Lyon.
