Real Madrid doesn’t want any surprises and has devised a plan for Vinícius Júniorto continue his entire career at Bernabéu. Florentino Pérez is clear that next summer will be key for his continuity and will tackle his multimillion-dollar renewal, trying to extend a contract that ends in 2027. He’s had a wonderful 2024 and deserves the chance to have a higher salary.
At the moment, Mbappé is the highest-paid player on Real Madrid’s team, and what Florentino wants is for Vinícius Júnior to at least come close. In recent months, he has received approaches from Saudi Arabia, offering him a lot of money. Al-Ahli put the biggest contract in history on the table, but the club refused to negotiate and referred to his 1,000 million clause.

It’s been proven that Vinícius Júnior is as important or even more so than Mbappé, and Florentino doesn’t want to waste time. AS has revealed that everything is set to offer him the renewal, preparing a great contract to try to convince him and make him forget the great interest he has in Saudi Arabia. Everyone wants him to stay, although it’s true that negotiations haven’t started yet and it won’t be easy.
Vinícius Júnior: This is Why He Didn’t Win the Ballon D’Or
Speaking of Vinícius Júnior and the Ballon d’Or, journalist Milly Lacombe from UOLhasn’t held back. “He won The Best cleanly and cleansed the soul of those who realized the obvious: he lost the award to Rodri due to racism,” she stated in the Brazilian media.
The journalist continued: “Oh, but then is Rodri a bad player? Argue those who insist on staying on the surface of everything. No, Rodri Hernández is an extraordinary player, but, for reasons that have already been debated at length, he wasn’t as decisive as Vinícius Júnior in the season in question.”

“No one was. Vinícius Júnior lost to the ‘polite’ Rodri because Vini bothers racists on and off the field,” the Brazilian journalist concluded.
The reality is that Vinícius Júnior has completed a dream 2024: League, Champions, Super Cups, Intercontinental, The Best, and Globe Soccer. The plan is clear: for 2025 to continue going wonderfully. Soon there will be titles at stake again, and Florentino is preparing a multimillion-dollar renewal to place him at the top of Madrid‘s salary scale.
