Not just the money: Al Hilal's CEO reveals how they want to sign Vinicius Jr

The transfer market has undergone a tremendous upheaval due to the emergence of Saudi Arabian soccer, which has been aggressive in recent years. With piles of money distributed in millions everywhere, they convince many players to join their project. This changed the dynamics a couple of years ago and now it's a constant threat for many clubs.

In this case, now Real Madrid is once again in the spotlight with one of its greatest gems, Vinícius Júnior. The Brazilian, who had a season of ups and downs, is now back on the radar of teams like Al Hilal, whose CEO is even talking about his possible signing. "Vinícius? The Saudi league can consider signing any player. We know we've got the tools to convince anyone, not just money..."

These were the words from Esteve Calzada, CEO of the Arab club, and they could be a clear threat to Real Madrid with its star. However, the board is very clear that Vinícius's goals are more connected to professional success than to the absurdly economic.

Vinicius in the spotlight

It's normal for a player like Vinícius to be in the sights of clubs of this magnitude and, above all, with a vision for the future of their league. In Saudi Arabia, they've managed to attract many other great footballers to join their project and "make it greater."

However, talking about a current star like Vinícius is a more than risky bet and, for many, impossible. However, they're fully confident they can convince him with things beyond money.

No. 7 is clear about it

There's no doubt that Vinícius knows what he wants and he can achieve it with Real Madrid, with which he has reached the highest glory. Therefore, leaving Real Madrid today, for someone like Vinícius, would be career suicide, especially to join a project with no clear direction like the one in Saudi Arabia.

Vinícius is in the spotlight, but the Brazilian wants to make history at the best club in the world.
