Linked to Real Madrid until 2027, Vinícius Júnior attracts the attention of Saudi Arabia with an unprecedented financial offer. Although the player has expressed his attachment to the Merengues, the slow pace of negotiations for a contract extension is starting to worry Madrid.
An astronomical offer from Saudi Arabia
According to Cadena SERSaudi Arabia would be ready to multiply Real Madrid’s current offer tenfold to attract Vinícius. In addition, a staggering proposal of 400 million euros for the transfer could arrive on the table, putting the Madrid club in a delicate situation. Despite his young age (23) and his exceptional performances this season (14 goals and 10 assists in 21 games), the aura of Saudi money could make the player think.
Real Madrid under pressure to react
If Vinícius wishes to stay at the Santiago Bernabéu, his entourage would have made it known that he is awaiting a salary increase which would bring him closer to Kylian Mbappé’s emoluments. However, according to
Marcano serious discussions have yet been initiated between the player and Madrid management. With the Club World Cup and crucial deadlines in 2025, Madrid cannot afford to lose one of its offensive pillars.
Vinícius’ decision: to stay or to go?
Torn between loyalty to the club that launched him at 16 and the opportunity to become the highest paid footballer in history, Vinícius remains silent for the moment. But Real will have to quickly meet its financial expectations to avoid a departure which would be catastrophic for its sporting project.
