The Brazilian has started negotiations with Los Blancos for a new contract.
Vinicius has a contract until 2027, but Real Madrid wishes to conclude a new lease before the end of the summer. However, since last year, Saudi Arabia clearly said it wanted to recruit the Brazilian, and it recently met its leaders to hear an offer to go to Saudi Pro League.
Ancelotti said on several occasions that Vinicius wanted to stay, and still did it before the match against Osasuna. “I'm tired, yes. But I am not worried. He looks happy and we are happy with him. This is a subject that we are talking about outside, not here. He doesn't talk about it either. Vinicius wants to do things well, like in Manchester, and he will continue, because he begins to find good physical shape, after injuries. I see it very motivated. Against City, he had a lot of pressure on him and he made the difference. »»
Irritated
“This is a question … I can only comment on what I see, a happy player who wants to write the story of this club. »» Vinicius would have irritated Real Madrid with the public way in which his talks took place with Saudi Arabia, and his comments to the press.
“I am not aware of this “, He replied when he was asked if he knew if the club was frustrated by the way Vinicius and his entourage managed the negotiations. “” Would I go? Why not. If I want to continue in football, why not. But we will see if I want to do something after Real Madrid. »»
“The situation in Arabia should not be surprising. They look towards the 2034 World Cup and are in a period when they are competitive, even if less than Europe, today … But in the future, we will see.
