Vinicius for sale for €150M: the most expensive transfer in Madrid's history

Madrid has valued Vinicius at 150 million euros, and if an offer for that amount arrives, they are willing to sell

Vinicius is no longer untouchable. Priorities have changed at Real Madrid and the Brazilian, far from being a key piece, has become a transferable player.

The club has set his price: 150 million euros. If someone comes with that amount, there will be no obstacles to his departure.

A disappointing year and Arabia on the prowl

Vinicius has experienced a season full of ups and downs. His performance at the Club World Cup was very discreet; he didn't make a difference and didn't shine as was desired.

He also hasn't managed to adapt to Xabi Alonso's new system. His connection with Kylian Mbappé hasn't worked. The partnership that was supposed to excite Madridists has remained just a promise.

The team needs solutions and the Brazilian has stopped being one of them. In Saudi Arabia, they remain alert. Several clubs would be willing to pay a record fee and Bernabéu knows it.

Florentino Pérez doesn't rule out that option. If the offer reaches 150 million, Vinicius will be sold. It would be the most expensive transfer in the club's history.

An operation that would allow reinvestment and open the door to new protagonists. Because in Valdebebas, they're already looking to the future.

The Basque coach has been clear. Here, the name doesn't rule. Performance rules and Vinicius isn't performing.

In training, the Mbappé–Gonzalo García duo is starting to consolidate. In matches, the Brazilian has lost spark, dribbling, and confidence.

Right now, his place is in doubt. Even his role as a starter is no longer guaranteed. Vinicius has a contract, has talent, and has time to turn things around, but he needs to react now.

Real Madrid has taken a firm stance. It won't sell him cheaply, but it will listen to offers if there is no change.

What seemed impossible just a few months ago is now on the table. Vinicius can leave and break all records along the way.
