Vinicius Junior warned Real Madrid will grow tired of his 'unbearable attitude' in astonishing rant

The Brazil international is a talismanic presence at Santiago Bernabeu, having played leading roles in La Liga and Champions League title triumphs. He has a further 17 goals to his name this season through 32 appearances in all competitions.

While Vinicius’ ability remains without question, helping him to become a Ballon d’Or contender, his on-field behaviour can attract unwelcome attention at times. The South American forward is often accused of being overly theatrical and argumentative.

That is considered to have been the case in his most recent outing, as Real played out a 1-1 draw with Osasuna in a contest that saw Jude Bellingham handed a controversial red card. Throughout said game, Vinicius was seen complaining to the match officials.

RMC Sport journalist Daniel Riolo has told After Foot: “When we see the Vinicius sketch again, he never stops faking it. Against Osasuna, he's looking for this kind of penalty, but you want to tell him: 'Shut the f*ck up Vinicius!' Stop, don't go complaining that a referee is wrong when you're doing everything to fool him.

“When you're trying to fake it, to get penalties, don't come complaining that there's a malfunction behind it. You're part of the system, you're all in it. Keep yelling if you want, but you're not moving things forward.”

Riolo went on to say during an incredible rant: “Vinicius is unbearable. Florentino Perez [Real Madrid president] will not put up with Vinicius much longer. He remains an extraordinary player, he makes them win, but Real will not put up with a guy who has that attitude for long. This guy is unbearable.”

Vinicius has become the subject of intense transfer speculation in Madrid, with big-spending teams in the Saudi Pro League reportedly ready to make offers to the 24-year-old that could see him earn €1 billion (£830m/$1bn) over the course of a five-year contract.
