Rodrygo Goes is expected to leave Real Madrid this summer, with instead it could be Vinicius Junior who leaves – especially now that there is more uncertainty around his future in the Santiago Bernabeu.
It was recently reported that Real Madrid and Vinicius have reached a paton of a contract, with a very little chance that an agreement will be made by the end of the summer. Given that the current deal of the 24-year-old will expire in 2027, there are doubts that have now been created with regard to his future in the Spanish capital.
And this uncertainty can now be used by Saudi Arabia, who are long-term admirers of Vinicius. They had cooled their interest when it seemed that he would sign a new contract, but they now feel a chance.
As reported by Talksport (via Sport), Saudi Arabia are willing to launch a world record offer for Vinicius, which is assumed that it is worth in the region of € 350 million. In addition, a bumper contract proposal will be submitted to the Brazil International, which had previously shown interest in making the move to the middle East.
Real Madrid value Vinicius very high, but there is a growing belief that he and Kylian Mbappe are unable to play together. And with the club that counts more on the Frenchman, it opens the possibility that they are considering offers for the winger.
Earlier, Real Madrid had made it clear that they were not interested in offers for Vinicius, and that he would only leave if the release clause of € 1 billion was activated. It is still to be seen whether their position has now changed and if it is, there is a chance that a world record deal will be completed before the end of the summer.
