Juanma Rodríguez Reveals the Reason Why Real Madrid Shouldn't Sell Vini

The journalist reveals why Real Madrid can't accept an offer for Vinícius

The possible sale of Vinícius is a recurring topic that many try to use to destabilize Real Madrid. They know that with the Brazilian, the white team has already won two Champions Leagues. They have shown themselves to be a team superior to all their rivals in terms of achievements.

That's why there's interest in selling the idea that he's not happy, that he should leave Real Madrid, and that they should transfer him. Beyond the continuous attacks against him and the racist insults he has to endure, the truth is that the offer from Saudi Arabia seems to bring him closer to his departure.

Juanma Rodríguez has spoken about this, and despite what is said, he is against selling Vinícius. He has pointed out the great danger that could arise if they finally present a great offer. "What prevents us from thinking that if we sell Vinícius, next year they won't come for Mbappé or Bellingham?" he noted.

Therefore, he believes that if they want to sell him, it should be for a large amount, and not just for 225 millions. It should rise to at least 300, if not double, to be a deterrent for other teams. Otherwise, they risk having the big stars pursued with huge sums.

Vinícius's renewal remains the pending issue in the offices of Valdebebas

Real Madrid has tried to renew Vinícius, but so far they haven't found an affirmative reply. The player's entourage is trying to leave everything hanging in the air until summer. They want to take advantage of the Saudi Arabian offer to get more money in his new contract.

It's true that Florentino has shown himself in favor of improving his salary so that he is among the best paid in the team. But the president of Real Madrid is not going to go crazy or break the salary scale. Therefore, although he is open to negotiating, he won't do it at any price.

In fact, Juanma Rodríguez has pointed out that Vinícius would be wrong to go down that path in negotiations. Among other things because Florentino has shown that he doesn't give in to anyone. Cristiano Ronaldo, Özil, or Sergio Ramos tried and ended up out of the club.
