Saudi Arabia Reappears and Sets the Bait for Vini, Unexpected Response from Real Madrid

The Club Reacts to the New Attempt from Arabia for the Brazilian

Real Madrid's Defeat Against Valencia left Vinícius as the main target of the fans. He took the responsibility for the penalty that he ended up missing when the score was still tied at zero. Since then, some in the stands have turned against him with whistles.

This has once again brought Saudi Arabia into the picture to take the Brazilian. Some suggest that Real Madrid should take advantage of the great offer for Vinícius this summer. However, this is not a stance shared by everyone, as we have already seen.

In fact, the white club hasn't changed their opinion in recent days. Despite everything that has happened and the recent criticisms, they consider him an untouchable player. They will not negotiate his departure unless he directly asks to leave.

Saudi Arabia had seen the latest events as a new opportunity to go after him. Some moves have already started, testing the waters for a possible signing. But Real Madrid, meanwhile, keeps the same stance and has no intention of letting him go.

Vinícius Made His Stance Clear Although His Camp Plays Coy

Before the match against Atlético de Madrid in the Champions League, Vinícius appeared at a press conference. There, he was asked about his future, and his response couldn't have been clearer. He assured that he wanted to stay at Real Madrid for many years and renew as soon as possible.

However, it seems that his camp is not so sure, as they haven't closed the door to Saudi Arabia. Since the first contacts were made, they haven't stopped and have continued to happen. This had caused uncertainty among Madrid fans, although it seems not within the white club.

Florentino trusts that an agreement for his renewal can be reached this summer. They believe that despite the criticisms he has received, nothing has changed with the Brazilian, whom they consider one of their great stars. In fact, they want him, along with Bellingham and Mbappé, to be the highest-paid.
