Vinicius Junior: Real Madrid ace pushed a guy away during photo session

Vinicius Junior is currently one of the best footballers in the world.

When he first joined Real Madrid from Flamengo as a teenager, the Brazilian star was understandably a bit raw and lightweight.

Vinicius also looked incredibly nervous in front of goal during his first years in the Spanish capital, but that’s certainly not the case now.

The 22-year-old is absolutely lethal in the final third these days.

Last season, Vinicius scored 22 goals and recorded 20 assists across all competitions in Real Madrid colours.

And he's showing absolutely no signs of slowing down in 2022/23. At the time of writing, the lightning-quick forward's 12 appearances this campaign have yielded seven goals and four assists.

The kid is special, very special indeed.

Given the fact he's now one of the world's best footballers, Vinicius is going to be recognised by people wherever he goes in the world.

The Brazil international's days of going shopping or having a meal out in peace are sadly all but over. His enormous pay packet will no doubt compensate for that, though.

Fans will be asking for pictures with Vinicius left, right and centre, although judging by footage uploaded to social media, you're not guaranteed to get one if you spot him on the street.

In the short video clip, the Real Madrid star pushes away a guy who appears to be trying to get a photograph with him.

What makes the footage even funnier is that before and after that act, Vinicius smilingly takes a picture with two women.

Check out the video that's doing the rounds on social media...

But was it all just a joke?

It's a very funny clip and what makes it even better is the fact it seems none of it was done in anger.

According to a tweet replying to the viral footage seen above, the guy is actually a close friend of Vinicius' and it was all simply a joke.

Fair play, lads. Obviously we cannot confirm that information to be 100% accurate, but the person from the photo with Vinicius and the one seen in the video do look incredibly similar.
