Real Madrid Confidencial Agreement between Florentino and Vinícius: this is Real Madrid's plan, it already has a team
For now, Real Madrid is in no hurry regarding Vinícius's contract renewal
The contract renewal between Vinícius and Real Madrid is still in the works and, as of today, it isn't a major concern for the club. The Brazilian still wants to earn an amount similar to Kylian Mbappé's, but Florentino Pérez has already made his position clear. The president doesn't want to break the club's finances and has already informed the winger that he'd be the second highest-paid player on the squad.
Meanwhile, Vinícius still has a contract with Real Madrid until June 2027. He has two more seasons in white and knows there's time to show on the field that he deserves that salary increase. The club also believes that it's best to wait for results to come in.
There is calm at Real Madrid
During the Club World Cup celebration, Vinícius sat down to review his contract situation with Real Madrid. The Brazilian winger asked to earn the same as Kylian Mbappé, but Florentino Pérez stood firm. They know the Carioca is a very important figure, but his performance has been too low to receive the amount he's requesting.
Meanwhile, the strong relationship between Vinícius and Florentino Pérez means there's no rush regarding the deal. The president trusts the Brazilian, knows he won't leave them stranded, and has even reportedly already rejected the offer from Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, the footballer understands there's no better place in the world to keep winning team and individual trophies.
The idea for both is to wait and, as Vinícius's camp already knows, sit down to negotiate again in 2026. This is a period in which the Brazilian will have to earn the renewal on the field, to clear up any doubts for Real Madrid and thus secure the salary increase he's demanding.
If Vinícius returns to his 23/24 season level, with numbers worthy of a potential Ballon d'Or, Real Madrid could meet his wishes. However, if the player continues along the same lines as in recent months, Florentino Pérez will be forced not to accept the Carioca's demands.
