Vinicius Junior reveals what he really thinks about Kylian Mbappe's playing style as he dismisses claims Real Madrid will be 'unstoppable' after bringing in ex-PSG star

Vinicius Junior, who has rejected a hugely lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, has expressed his excitement at playing with Mbappe after the World Cup winner was lured to the club on a free transfer following his exit from Paris Saint-Germain. The pair have yet to truly align, with Real drawing one and winning one of their opening two La Liga games, although Vinicius has expressed his hope that the superstar will start hitting the back of the net with regularity, and has hailed his style.

While there are hopes that Real will be able to conquer all-comers this season, given the sheer weight of attacking talent - they now boast Vinicius and Mbappe as well as Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo, and Endrick - Vinicius is not sure that they will be able to simply sweep teams aside as they aim to retain both La Liga and the Champions League.

Vinicius told CNN: “I love Mbappe’s style, I love how he plays, and the truth is that I’m very excited about what we can do during the season. He’s coming in after having scored so many goals, after winning so many titles. He’s arriving at the club he always dreamed to be in and where every player always dreamed to play for: Real Madrid. God willing, Mbappé will be able to score as many goals for us as he did in his previous team, as he does in the national team, and that he can do even more together with us.”

The Brazilian added: "The team is very good and has been that way for a long time now. Now with the arrival of Mbappé, everyone says the team can become unstoppable, but for now, we have to perform the best training sessions and try to understand each other as quickly as possible.”

Mbappe and Vinicius will next link up when Los Blancos play Las Palmas on Thursday. Their opponents have yet to win a game this season and Real will hope to put them to the sword.
