The news had the effect of a small bomb on the football world. Announced as the big favorite for the 2024 Ballon d’Or, Vinícius Júnior was finally pipped to the post by a certain Rodri, also author of an exceptional 2023-2024 season whether with Manchester City or Spain. Shocked, the Brazilian international (35 caps, 5 goals) quickly broke his silence, ensuring that he would redouble his efforts to achieve his goals. “I will do 10 times more if necessary. They’re not ready.”had thus coldly launched the former Flamengo crack. Yes, but despite this displayed determination, the native of São Gonçalo still experienced this episode as a terrible affront.

A failure which, moreover, modified his plans since the latter planned to ask for the biggest salary from Real Madrid in the event of being crowned the Ballon d’Or. Also note that the 1m76 right-hander saw, on this occasion, a bonus of more than €1 million (included in his contract) pass under his nose. From then on, the upper echelons of Casa Blanca became active in trying to console their protégé. In recent hours, Relevo indicated, in this respect, that the Merengue board wanted to offer a new contract to its left winger, just one year after having extended it. A proposal to which the person concerned has, however, still not followed up. Enough to open the file of your future? As we write these lines, the question is legitimate.

A historic contract over 4 seasons

Indeed, if the Auriverde nugget continues to attract many European big names – like PSG, Manchester United or even Chelsea – Saudi Arabia is also more than ever on the lookout. According to our latest information, the Saudi government, determined to place him at Al-Hilal, has already traveled to Madrid to meet the 24-year-old player and present a project to him – on a giant screen – totally crazy. Still according to our indiscretions, the Saudis also made an offer to the Brazilian, namely a four-season contract, accompanied by a net annual salary never before received in the football world.

A historic offer which would therefore make Vinícius Júnior the highest paid player in the world, while having a say in recruitment. For his part, the player opened the door to leaving Madrid to try the adventure in the Gulf. However, according to our information, the number 7 of the Merengues only wants to join Saudi Arabia from 2026. Before that, the one who totals 8 goals and 7 assists in 15 matches in all competitions since the start of the season counts keep up your pace and thus apply for the next Ballon d’Or…
