Vinicius Involved in Xabi Alonso's Request to Coach Real Madrid

Vinicius Jr

It's practically impossible to think of Real Madrid without the presence of one of its most important players like Vinicius Júnior. The Brazilian is one of the greatest figures in the world of soccer and in the same merengue team. However, his possible move to Arab soccer could trigger a series of crucial decisions for the club's future.

In this case, one of Xabi Alonso's requests to join the merengue bench would be the signing of a star like Florian Wirtz. The German could only join the Chamartín team in the event of a titanic sale by the institution. A sale that could easily be covered by a player like Vinicius in almost any aspect.

The offer from Arab soccer for the South American is quite substantial, and some media place it at around 1 billion euros in the long run. This represents a massive economic income for Real Madrid, which could reinvest it in Leverkusen's jewel.

His Departure Unlocks Everything

Alonso, being such a clear target for the white team, clearly shows they want to please him in his arrival at the merengue club. Therefore, the signing of the top star of his current club could prompt him to join his former team.

Wirtz is not just any player, and he has made that clear over the last two seasons. During these, he has shown that he can be considered a superstar. This is evident with his little more than 2,900 minutes in which he has participated in 38 goal contributions.

His numbers are beastly, as is his market value, which reaches 140 million euros.  This raises doubts about his signing unless Vinicius's departure leaves an exuberant amount in the merengue coffers.

Arabia Must Take the Final Step

With an intervention from Arabia at the right moment, it would only be a matter of time to see Vinicius leave Real Madrid. However, his departure could be a great disappointment for the fans who see him as a reference in the club. A very risky move by the management.
