Real Madrid is aware of this "threat" posed by Arab soccer

Rumors about the transfer market continue to generate a lot of noise. Something that's to be expected, especially when Real Madrid's name is in the eye of the storm.

This is something that explains what happened with Vinícius Jr. and worries all Madrid, as they keep seeing how Saudi Arabia is waiting for him with open arms.

However, the latest statements from Omar Mugharbel, head of the SPL, have set off all the alarms at Real Madrid.

"Something similar to other stars we have. There's the sporting aspect, to improve the quality of the teams, the structures, and the dynamics. Also, the commercial visibility; key players have global visibility and great commercial value. It clearly makes the league grow, it's very important in sports, but also in visibility and commercially," he said about what it would mean to have Vini Jr. Although these weren't his only words.

Doesn't rule out his transfer

Additionally, Omar Mugharbel, who gave these words to the 'AS' newspaper, elaborated on the possible arrival of the Brazilian.

"We have different clubs at different levels, with different levels of maturity. It happens in all leagues worldwide; there are teams that can attract that type of players and others that still need to develop much more. And if I evaluate based on what we have today, our clubs have what it takes to attract, develop, and nurture such talent. So let's wait and see what happens with that," added the head of the Saudi Pro League.

These words have made a big noise, especially because it's the first time a personality from Arab soccer has spoken openly about the possible transfer of the Real Madrid star.

For now, Florentino and Sánchez cling to Vini Jr.'s word and to his public statements in which he made clear that his dream is to keep wearing white. Although they understand the money from Saudi Arabia can make more than one person lose their head.
