Vinícius Surprises With a 'low-cost' Contract to Stay at Real Madrid

The future of Vinícius at Real Madrid has taken an unexpected turn in recent days. It seemed that his move to Saudi Arabia was closer than ever after news of his meeting. Although it took place in 2023, the interest shown by the Brazilian had set off all the alarms.

In the lead-up to the Champions League classic against Atlético, Vinícius addressed the matter. "I have a contract until 2027 and hopefully we can renew my contract," he acknowledged to the press. Therefore, it seems that there are no doubts in his mind and that he only plans to stay at Real Madrid.

From the white club, they were willing to sit down to negotiate and accept a salary increase for Vini. According to various sources, the Brazilian would be asking to earn 20 million euros. Currently, his earnings are at 15, and it seems that Madrid might agree.

A 'downward' renewal if we consider that it would be a not very significant salary increase. Especially considering the great importance he has gained within the merengue team. Even in the Copa match against Real Sociedad, he wore the captain's armband.

Real Madrid Willing to Negotiate but with Limits

Vinícius has already expressed his intentions to renew his contract with Real Madrid as soon as possible. Meanwhile, the club is also willing to sit down to negotiate with the Brazilian forward. They know they will have to raise his salary, something they would have already decided.

However, the increase will not be enormous, although he will become one of the highest-paid in the squad. Florentino will not break his scale for Vinícius or any other player. That is the limit they have set, and the Brazilian would already know it.

The current idea at Real Madrid is to equalize their 3 stars in terms of salary. Mbappé is the highest-paid, and Vinícius would earn the same as the Frenchman. But also Bellingham, whom they would be willing to renew this summer as well.
