Unimaginable demands and various conflicts are repeated. Real Madrid is also pondering his future.
Mario Cortegana, a reporter from The Athletic who is familiar with the news of Real Madrid, reported on the 24th (Korea time) 'Vinícius Junior expressed his intention to refuse to renew the contract with Real'
Cortegana"Vinícius said his relationship with Xavi Alonso was very uncomfortable and he did not want to renew his contract with Real. Those messages were delivered during a conversation between Vinicius and Florentino Perez in late October. Vinicius's contract is valid until June 2027'

Vinicius was a symbol of Real until the 2023-2024 season. The boy, who has shown clear growth since moving to Real in 2018, has become the ace of Real. The performance that directly led Real to the top of the European Champions League in the 2021-2022 season was a catalyst for Vinicius' leap forward. He was one of the best wingers in the world to score more than 20 goals each season, scoring 23 goals and 19 assists, 24 goals and 9 assists in the 2023-2024 season, and 21 goals and 15 assists in the 2024-2025 season.
However, from the 2024-2025 season, the atmosphere surrounding Vinicius has changed slightly. More often than the glamour of the scoring scene, out-of-game issues have become Vinicius's main topic. Controversy over personality and discord in the game poured out, and complaints about complacent defense participation and dissatisfied actions during the game created trouble within the team.
The situation has not changed. Rather, it is getting worse. Since Xavi Alonso's new appointment, Real have been reborn as a team centered on Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham. Vinicius's presence has dropped significantly. In this situation, there is tension between Vinicius and Alonso. In October, in El Clasico, Vinicius expressed intense anger during the replacement process during the game and even poured out remarks suggesting a transfer.

Negotiations for renewing the contract were also sluggish. Vinicius demanded a significant salary increase, and it was a difficult amount for Real to afford. Cortegana"Vinícius asked Cristiano Ronaldo to renew his contract at the highest level in the club's history. This is around €30 million. It is an amount that has never been offered to Real players before." Negotiations were forced to walk parallel.
However, there is still an expectation that Vinicius's situation will improve. Cortegana 'There is an expectation within the club that Vinicius and Alonso will be able to regain relations if their performance and results improve. However, it remains to be seen whether Vinicius will resolve all his fundamental grievances and continue his life at Real.
Real's ace crashed into trouble. If re-signing negotiations continue to fail, Vinicius's preparation to head to another team next summer cannot be ruled out.
