Talks have taken place between Real Madrid and Vinicius Junior in recent weeks, leading to what can be considered a prelude to a final agreement between the two parties for the Brazilian international to renew his contract at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Since Xabi Alonso took over as Real Madrid coach, speculation has increased that Vinicius’s time at the club is drawing to a close. Following the events of El Clásico and the player’s reaction to being substituted, the rumors reached their peak, with several newspapers asserting that Vinicius was on his way out of the Royal Club.
However, the newspaper AS, in its latest report, indicated that, contrary to expectations, the relationship between Real Madrid and Vinicius is currently at its best, and all signs point to the player signing his new contract in the Spanish capital very soon.
Vinicius spoke with Alonso after what happened in El Clásico, and the two explained the situation to each other, completely resolving the crisis. Real Madrid’s management has praised this conversation and the solution reached by both parties to move on and overcome the situation.
Meanwhile, discussions between the management and Vinicius’s representatives have been positive. During negotiations, the player was informed that the club comes before any individual player, a point the Brazilian accepted. He respected the club’s assurances that he is a valuable asset they will never part with.
Contrary to some reports, Vinicius did not make any sporting demands or insist on being the undisputed star, rather than Kylian Mbappé. The Brazilian simply informed his club that he wants to play in his current position, nothing more, nothing less. Financial terms are now the focus of negotiations, and an agreement is expected soon.
Both the player’s representatives and Real Madrid’s management understand that an agreement will put an end to the rumors and usher in a period of stability and calm, which will benefit the player, the team, and the club on a sporting, social, and financial level.
