Figo Addresses Vinicius and Says It to His Face, He Doesn't Hold Back: It's Not Good

The match against Athletic Club ended in an epic last-minute victory for Real Madrid. Through a great goal by Fede Valverde, Real Madrid has strengthened its fight for LaLiga against Barcelona. However, one of the most mentioned issues has been Vinícius's absence in the goal celebration.

Generating many doubts among Madridists, Luis Figo provided some strong statements regarding this. "It's never good to be at odds with your fans," were his words to condemn Vinícius's attitude. Although he clarified that he doesn't know the reasons behind Vinícius's attitude, Figo was clear in pointing out this mistake by the player.

"What you want is for them to support you, for you to play well, and for people to be happy. Other fans won't matter to you, but you want yours to love you." With these last words, Figo was quite forceful in showing his discontent with Vinícius.

Another Vinícius Controversy

With 21 goals and 15 assists, this season is not at all a disaster for Vinícius Júnior in terms of numbers. However, Vinícius has been the target of several criticisms due to his current performance. While Vinícius remains important for Real Madrid, his attitude has raised doubts among more than one Madridist.

Although Vinícius's commitment to Real Madrid has been confirmed on several occasions, this is not entirely clear. Not celebrating Valverde's goal shows that, at the very least, something is not quite right with Vinícius.

Figo's words, besides showing his discontent, aim to be a warning for Vinícius. Observing the terrible situation Ancelotti is experiencing despite not having a bad attitude with the fans, Vinícius's situation could be worse.

Figo's Experience

Having been part of Real Madrid for several seasons, Luis Figo knows perfectly well what it means to be a player for the club. That's why, in an effort to recover the best Vinícius Júnior, Figo was more critical than usual of his attitude.
