As he likes to say, Vinicius Jr wants to have a long career at Real Madrid. Despite interests from Saudi Arabia, the Brazilian striker does not seem to consider a departure from the Spanish capital in the short term.

However, remains the question of its extension. His current contract runs until June 2027, but according to AS, the Madrid leaders and the player's entourage plan to resume negotiations this summer in order to extend his lease next summer.

Vinicius conditions to extend

If the two parties wish to continue the adventure together, Vinicius would have laid down its financial conditions. He would demand a salary increase of five million euros, in addition to the 15 million he currently receives.

The reasons for this request? The salary of Kylian Mbappé, also set at 15 million euros, but with a signing bonus when he arrived free last summer. The Vinicius clan considers this premium as a supplement of remuneration for French and hopes to obtain a similar adjustment. It remains to be seen whether this request could lead to a domino effect within the Madrid locker room.
