José Félix Díaz drops the bomb about Vinícius's future: he signs after the World Cup

Doubts about Vinicius's continuity are reportedly close to coming to an end, and everything will materialize after the World Cup

Real Madrid is focused on the Club World Cup, but the truth is that the club isn't neglecting its sports planning and, more specifically, the possible reinforcements that could further strengthen Xabi Alonso's squad for the upcoming season. It seems that Dean Huijsen, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Franco Mastantuono won't be the only new faces around Valdebebas.

The club also isn't forgetting about the situation of many of its footballers who are close to renewing their contracts or, on the contrary, won't continue for the next season. Thus, Luka Modric and Lucas Vázquez will say goodbye after the Club World Cup, and Jesús Vallejo, who hasn't even traveled to the United States for the world tournament, will end his contract with Madrid in just over a week.

Vinicius Junior is in a similar situation. The Brazilian, who was already on Saudi Arabia's radar last summer, has been the talk of the town all season, with the threat from the East looming again. According to reports, several Saudi teams were preparing an offer of more than €1 billion in salary for the "7" of Madrid.

Rumors about a possible departure from Madrid by Vini increased in October of last year, when he was "robbed" of the Ballon d'Or, which was "given" to Rodri Hernández, a footballer whom not even UEFA knew. The institution presided over by Aleksander Ceferin got involved in the "France Football" award ceremony for the first time in history.

About to renew

Vinicius's future is very close to being clarified and, after the footballer "erased" all traces of Madridism from his Instagram profile, the player would have already signed the contract renewal with the club, according to journalist José Félix Díaz. The agreement would become official after the World Cup, a title Madrid has set as its goal to win.

Vini's last contract renewal took place in 2023 and his salary was increased considerably, in addition to securing his future with a €1 billion clause. With the new update to his contract, the Fluminense star could become the highest-paid footballer on the squad, a status he has earned and that Florentino Pérez has wanted to reward after an unparalleled career of growth at the club.
