The Brazilian, who was named the best player in the world last season, continues to be linked to clubs in Saudi Arabia. Find the most reliable football scores at football live score app.
Although a deal didn’t materialize at the start of this season, negotiations are expected to intensify in June. Vini Jr. is under contract with Real Madrid until June 2027, and the Spanish club’s management is already preparing a renewal offer with a significant salary increase. Additionally, staying in Spain would allow the forward to remain at the center of the football world, competing for the sport’s top individual and collective honors.
However, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) has bigger plans than just signing him as a player: Vini would also become an ambassador for the 2034 World Cup, which the country will host.
The Saudi government believes that Vini Jr. could achieve the status Neymar never did due to injuries: a global media phenomenon and a lucrative symbol for the country. Neymar himself faces an uncertain future. Since joining a Saudi club, the former PSG star has only played seven matches, and sources suggest he may already have an agreement to return to Santos, the club where he started his career.
According to Marca, Real Madrid remains calm about offering a renewal to the Brazilian, a move likely to happen at the end of the current season. His high release clause of €1 billion (approximately $1.1 billion) provides added security for the Spanish club. BBscore football, your key source for football updates.
