Florentino Pérez likes to spoil his supporters. A little less than two years ago, in the summer of 2024, the president of Real Madrid, however, had a personal pleasure by recruiting Kylian Mbappé, a player he had been chasing for years. But his patience and perseverance paid off. At the end of the contract, the Bondynois was able to join Casa Blanca to the delight of Pérez, who had lost several tussles against Paris Saint-Germain in the past. Two years later, the strong man of Real Madrid will once again find the French club on the transfer window. For several weeks, the name of Vitinha has come up repeatedly in the Iberian sports press.
And it’s never a coincidence when this kind of information comes out. Not completely convinced by his midfielder, Florentino Pérez, who knows that a lot of work also awaits him in defense, greatly appreciates the profile of the Portuguese international. A player who has continued to gain strength and impress in Paris, where he is one of Luis Enrique’s centerpieces. All this has not escaped the Madrid leaders, who see in him the player capable of bringing what is missing in the midfield since the departures of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric. But this file seemed inaccessible for the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium. He’s not as much anymore.
Madrid have 3 reasons to believe in it for Vitinha
This Wednesday, the Cadena SERa media considered very serious on the other side of the Pyrenees, provides a broad overview of this issue. Thus, the Spanish club ensures that this operation which could “seeming utopian in recent months is now more realistic.” But in Madrid, we don’t plan to go too quickly and compromise our chances. Thus, the SER specifies that the Madrid team wishes to take action for Vitinha. But she won’t move a little toe as long as Paris Saint-Germain is in contention in the UEFA Champions League. This would not be a good thing for the player, the French club, with whom it would be necessary to negotiate, and Real Madrid, which is also launching its season.
Finally, Iberian radio concludes by indicating that this transfer is now possible for three reasons. First of all, the 26-year-old midfielder concluded a private agreement (gentlemen agreement) with PSG to leave in the event of an offer of around €100 million. Which was more or less known. Then, the SER adds that relations between Real Madrid and PSG, in particular those between Florentino Pérez and Nasser Al-Khelaïfi who seem to have buried the hatchet, have clearly improved in recent weeks. Which is an excellent thing for the Vitinha file. Finally, the Spanish media assures that the Portuguese under contract until 2029 is open to new challenges after his experience in Paris. All this gives a lot of confidence to Real Madrid, who will try their luck for this file which is no longer so inaccessible. It remains to be seen whether this will please him.
