Real Madrid Confidencial COPE announces it: the reason why Florentino has torn up Vinícius's new contract
The agreement hasn't been reached and the Brazilian's contract renewal is hanging in the air
In recent weeks, everything seemed to indicate that Real Madrid had Vinícius Júnior's contract renewal more than ready. His agent was spotted leaving the club's offices and, although he made no statements, it seemed obvious. However, nothing official has been done yet, not even after the Club World Cup.
This has caused a lot of uncertainty until Cadena COPE surprised with its report. The agreement they would have reached still hasn't been finalized with a signature. The new contract hasn't been signed, and that's causing delays and doubts about what might happen.
According to the aforementioned outlet, the financial aspect is what's preventing both sides from coming closer together. The Brazilian wants a salary increase that would be quite high compared to his current one. Meanwhile, Real Madrid believe that it's too large an amount and they're not going to reach it.
They still have time ahead to reach an agreement for Vinícius's renewal with Real Madrid. His contract expires in 2027, which means it's not urgent to make a decision right now. Although at the club, they did want to have it secured to put all the rumors to rest.
This would be the big beneficiary of Vinícius's departure from Real Madrid
It's true that right now no one has spoken out and Vinícius's departure doesn't seem imminent. But if it were to happen, there would be a big beneficiary, and that's none other than Rodrygo Goes. Without his compatriot, he could even return to the left wing, which is where he most likes to play.
Until now, the former Santos player seemed to be the one with the most chances of leaving this summer. Especially after seeing how, in some Club World Cup matches, he hasn't played a single minute. But Vinícius could change everything at once and deliver a big surprise.
Weeks of rumors and uncertainty are expected until the decision that's made becomes official. At Madrid, they trust they'll close a deal for the Carioca's renewal and that he'll remain one of the stars. Right now, they're not closing the door on anything happening.
