Background I weigh about 87kg just a bit less and want to put lean mass
Any chance someone can help

The simple rule of thumb for macros to while training for hypertrophy is: 1 gram of protein per lb of lean mass (or .8 grams per lb of body weight if you don't have a good idea of your lean mass), .3 grams of fat per lb of body weight and carbs for the rest. There is a lot's of wiggle room to increase fat or protein if you like but the muscle building benefit doesn't improve with more protein.2
