In another life, Vinicius Jr could have worn the Paris Saint-Germain jersey. This is indeed what agent André Curry asserts in an interview given to the Spanish media As.
Specialist in transfers of Brazilian players, he is behind the transaction of Neymar JR at PSG in 2017.
The former sports director of the capital's club, Leonardo, was a big fan of Vinicius JR at the time. Even if the Brazilian had not yet started in professional, Leonardo saw him in him a player of the future capable of unraveling within the Red and Blue.
André Curry also claims that Vinicius could have served as a currency when Real Madrid showed his interest in Kylian Mbappé or Neymar: ” At that time, Vini did not yet play, but he was very precious because he was a winger with a great future. I know it because Leonardo told us because he really liked Vinicius. When Madrid first wanted Neymar then Mbappé, PSG has always asked Vinicius as a replacement“.
Vinicius JR at PSG in the future?
We know the rest of the story. Vinicius remained at Real Madrid where he asserted himself to the point of becoming second in the Golden Ball 2024 classification. However, rumors sending him to Paris Saint-Germain did not stop circulating.
Even more lately, knowing that the Brazilian has still not extended his contract which expires in 2027 with Real Madrid. Last March, The Athletic announced that the Parisian sports management had entered into discussion with the entourage of the player.
