The months pass and nothing changes for Vinicius Jr. Under contract until 2027 with Real Madrid, the Brazilian striker (25 years old) still does not see the shadow of an extension arriving on his desk. Despite the forcing he attempted by asking the Merengue leaders for a colossal salary of 25 million euros net per year, Florentino Perez knew how to remain firm.
So today, the balance of power has been reversed: either “Vini” accepts the offer that the White House seems ready to make to him, namely 22 million euros per year including bonuses according to Sportor it will be sold at the end of the season. With undoubtedly a very nice check at stake for Casa Blanca, the player being valued at 150 million euros by the site
Transfermarkt.
Since the start of the season, his trainer Xabi Alonso has taken it upon himself to show him that he is no longer as essential as before, by regularly putting him in competition with his compatriot Rodrygo. Author of 5 goals and 4 assists in 10 matches in all competitions, Vinicius Jr does not seem perturbed for the moment. But that might not last.
Vinicius replacement already found?
In the past, Real Madrid has already had to deal with such situations. Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos actually found themselves in the same situation and both ended up leaving the Spanish capital. Proof that the president of the Madrid club can sometimes not show feelings and keep a cool head, even when it comes to stars in the locker room.
To replace him, the current leaders of LaLiga would also already have a plan in mind. Erling Haaland would be seen as the potential successor to Vinicius Jr. The Norwegian striker (25 years old) may have returned until 2034 at Manchester City, Florentino Perez would like him a lot and his lease would include clauses that could facilitate his departure. A successful business?
