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.
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.
Ex-Arsenal striker Jeremie Aliadiere says Kylian Mbappe is the "best player in the world" but thinks his "ego must be hurt" after watching his former club Paris Saint-Germain win the Champions League last season. Luis Enrique helped the Ligue 1 giants win their maiden European title just a year after the France captain left for Real Madrid as a free agent.
Former Real Madrid player and sporting director Predrag Mijatovic has issued a warning towards Los Blancos related to Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior as he claimed the fans' love for the Brazilian winger has diminished over the years. Madrid signed Mbappe from Paris-Germain last summer on a free transfer to complete their new-age Galacticos.
Kylian Mbappe has unexpectedly found himself embroiled in legal scrutiny after it was revealed that he donated over €180,000 from his FIFA World Cup bonus to a group of police officers. The Real Madrid forward reportedly transferred the significant amount to five officers from France’s riot police unit who were assigned to protect the national team during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
