Rumors about Vinícius Júnior's future have shaken Madridism. Saudi Arabia has put a colossal offer on the table. The operation would reach one billion euros between transfer and salary.
Of that amount, Real Madrid would receive 300 million for his transfer, while the Brazilian winger would take the rest in contract. However, despite the magnitude of the proposal, his departure is not in the plans.
Vinícius Júnior will stay at Real Madrid
The "7" in white has a contract until 2027, and his intention is to continue at Real Madrid for a long time. He doesn't contemplate a change of scenery, much less to a league like the Saudi one, whose level is light years away from Real Madrid.
In fact, the first contacts have already been made with Real Madrid to assess his renewal. Florentino Pérez wants to shield him against any attempt of escape or crazy proposal.
While Vinícius Stays, another Brazilian is on the way out
Although Vinícius's future seems clear, in Real Madrid's locker room there is uncertainty with another young promise. The situation is completely different.
The affected player is not getting minutes, and the competition in his position complicates his outlook even more. His departure in the summer is starting to become a real option.
Endrick is the big loser
Endrick, who would arrive at Madrid in July, has found an unexpected scenario with a secondary role in the team. Having Vinícius, Rodrygo, Bellingham, and Mbappé in the attack, his prominence has been reduced to a minimum. Therefore, the management is already evaluating what to do with him.
Vinícius asks Florentino not to sell him
The winger knows his friend's situation well and has spoken with Florentino about it. He doesn't want his compatriot to leave permanently. If Endrick must leave, Vinícius prefers it to be on loan, as he believes his adaptation to European soccer needs patience.
Florentino Pérez is aware of the problem and is weighing the possibilities. A loan could be the best solution for all parties. The goal is for Endrick to gain minutes at another club and return when he is ready to compete at the highest level.
Important decisions are coming
The summer market will be key to defining the Brazilian's future. Vinícius has his continuity assured, but his friend might pack his bags.
Florentino will have the final say. The sports planning is underway, and there will be movements in Real Madrid's forward line.
