Real Madrid Plans to Transfer Vinicius Jr
The relationship between Vinicius Jr and Real Madrid seems to be approaching an unexpected conclusion. Despite outward appearances, tensions between the Brazilian winger and coach Xabi Alonso have worsened significantly in recent weeks.
Declining Performance and Rising Tensions
Sources close to the Madrid dressing room indicate that disagreements escalated following a missed penalty against Valencia, which visibly frustrated Alonso. On the field, Vinicius's performance has also raised concerns. Starting at Anfield against Liverpool in the Champions League, he was unable to change the outcome of a 1-0 loss, showing a decline in both statistics and overall impact.
"Both his stats and his impact on the game are declining, far from the dynamism that once made him the face of the 'new Real.'"
Transfer Prospects and Club Decisions
German media outlet Bild reports that Real Madrid's board plans to put Vinicius on the transfer market as early as this summer. This claim is supported by El Chiringuito, which describes the potential transfer as an "outcome that is hard to avoid." Vinicius is under contract through 2027 but is facing consequences from diminishing internal confidence and the rise of new attacking talents reshaping the club's strategy.
Despite the challenges, Vinicius Jr continues to attract interest from several clubs.
Summary
Vinicius Jr is at a crossroads with Real Madrid as declining form and internal tensions push the club toward a likely summer transfer.
