Real Madrid are ready to reward Vinicius Jr for his brilliant season despite his disappointment at the 2024 Ballon d’Or, where he was pipped to Rodri. While he is already under contract until 2027, the Merengues have started discussions with the Brazilian’s entourage to consider an extension.
This initiative would aim not only to promote his exceptional performances (24 goals and 11 assists in 39 matches), but also to prevent Vinicius from feeling threatened by the possible arrival of Kylian Mbappé or Saudi interests.
Vinicius at the top of the hierarchy
Vinicius’ attachment to Real is undeniable, with him recently declaring: “I want to be here forever and do a lot for this club that gave me everything. » His recent performance with a hat-trick against Borussia Dortmund (5-2) further strengthens his status as Real’s essential star.
For Madrid, this new extension would be as much a sign of recognition as an assurance of loyalty in the face of future challenges in the transfer market.
