Vinicius Junior has reportedly refused Real Madrid's latest contract proposal, casting huge doubt over his long-term future in the Spanish capital. The Brazilian, regarded as one of the brightest stars in the Los Blancos squad, has grown increasingly frustrated with the terms offered and his camp believes the numbers simply do not stack up.
Vinicius Junior is reportedly set to be dropped from the Brazil squad by Carlo Ancelotti for the September World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Bolivia. Ancelotti, who was once Vinicius' loudest cheerleader at Real Madrid, might rest the star forward during the upcoming international window.
Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior has put the brakes on discussions regarding a contract extension, sparking growing uncertainty about his long-term future in the Spanish capital. The Brazilian has less than two years remaining on his current deal, and at this stage, his representatives have decided to step away from the negotiating table entirely, at least for the foreseeable future.
It's not quite gone according to plan for Vinicius Jr. at Real Madrid ever since he missed out on the Ballon d'Or and he's now got a big season ahead of him
Real Madrid have decided not to pay Vinicius Junior the same salary as Kylian Mbappe amid speculation that the Brazilian might not extend his stay at the Santiago Bernabéu beyond 2027. Contract talks between the player and the club have stalled for months now as the Selecao star is demanding a hike in his salary which the Spanish side are refusing to entertain.
Real Madrid have already identified Vinicius Junior's replacement as contract talks with the Brazilian winger have stalled. Vini Jr. still has two years left on his existing deal and is demanding a wage hike to sign a new contract. In case the Selecao star leaves the club, amid interest from Saudi Arabia, Los Blancos will go after Premier League star Erling Haaland.
