The joy of Real Madrid at their win on Tuesday against Manchester City is where the Whites want to focus their attention, staying clear of transfer rumours, speculation and refereeing issues. This is difficult because there is a lot of noise and the news keeps coming, especially regarding everything surrounding the number 7 of the Whites in recent weeks.

The future of Vinicius Jr. has been on everyone’s lips in recent weeks with the news coming from Saudi Arabia. Very large financial offers for both the controversial player and Real Madrid ended with a video of the Brazilian saying he wants to be great in the white shirt and win titles under Carlo Ancelotti.

In the midst of the offers and talk about the future of the number 7, there was also debate about whether the team played better or worse without him, taking advantage of the fact that he was absent through suspension for several matches. The player has not scored in the league since November and his new role in the team does not suit him and it does not seem that Ancelotti has managed to find the key to getting the best out of the Brazilian

The truth is that there were data and opinions for all tastes, but the reality is that the player wears and, at least for the moment, will wear white, as Relevo pointed out, the Brazilian and Real Madrid have already sat down to negotiate his next renewal. Speculation and possible impediments related to the economic issue have quickly arisen around this renewal.

Saudi Arabia has shown interest and would be willing to offer him a stratospheric figure. The Arabs are upping the ante for Vinicius. They want to pay him more than 200 million per season and Real Madrid 400 million. There was also talk at the time that he would leave for two or three years to promote the World Cup and return to Europe. A kind of very well-paid leave of absence as he would earn between 15 and 20 times more than he earns right now wearing the white shirt. However, everything indicates that his priority is still Europe, where he wants to continue competing at the highest level.

The latest news, published in the last few hours, is that, according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Vinicius’s team approached PSG to open informal talks for a possible transfer. In addition, the Parisians are closely monitoring his situation and could make a move if he does not receive the salary he wants from Real Madrid. Currently, the Brazilian receives an emolument of around 15 million euros net per year, a salary that includes certain bonuses, such as the one obtained for winning The Best FIFA award.

Many see this move by the player, in the middle of negotiations to extend his contract, as a maneuver by his team to try to force a pay rise. The first meeting has already taken place, in which specific figures were discussed, but no agreement was reached. The player’s last renewal took place in 2023. The player’s buy-out clause amounts to 1 billion euros.

It is not the first time that the French club, where Kylian Mbappé arrived after several years of drama and arguments over financial issues with his former team, has been linked with the Brazilian player of Real Madrid. Paris Saint Germain is waiting to see how negotiations for the renewal of the Brazilian footballer progress before making its move. We will have to see what happens in the coming months with the future of the player who might want to set himself other goals and increase his bank balance.
