Saudi Arabia Is Ready to Make History with Vinícius Junior. Their financial capacity allows them to pay the 1 billion euro release clause that the Brazilian has at Real Madrid.

Additionally, they offer him a 1 billion contract for five seasons. If necessary, they would raise the offer to 1.5 billion to convince him.

The saga between Vinícius, Real Madrid, and Saudi Arabia remains open. Meanwhile, the club and the player negotiate his renewal, the Arab proposal looms as a threat.

Last summer, Relevo already reported on the initial offer of 1 billion for five years. Now, sources close to the Saudi league assure that this figure could increase.

A Strategic Signing

Saudi Arabia doesn't want to be seen as a league that only signs with a checkbook. Their economy allows them to pay the Brazilian's clause without problems. But their goal goes beyond money.

They consider that signing Vinícius would open the door to many more young footballers. The investment in the Brazilian would facilitate future negotiations and increase the global appeal of the Saudi Pro League.

The country has changed its recruitment strategy. With the 2034 World Cup secured, they no longer seek veterans for retirement.

Now, the priority is players under 25 years old. Vinícius fits perfectly into this profile.

They have approached other young stars like Rodrygo and have managed to sign John Durán. The arrival of the Brazilian winger would represent a show of authority and a revolution in world soccer.

Sporting and Commercial Impact

The Saudi Pro League wants to grow in all areas. Omar Mugharbel, CEO of the Saudi league, made it clear in an interview with AS: "Signing Vinícius would not only improve the level of the competition. It would also increase the commercial visibility and global presence of the league".

Real Madrid wants to renew their star. His current contract ends in 2027, but the club seeks to reward him after winning The Best. However, they are not willing to break their salary scale.

If the renewal is not closed soon, Arabia is already studying how much they would need to convince the white club. Their goal is clear: to make Vinícius the face of their league and attract more stars from European soccer.
