Vinicius Jr. contract situation causes a stir at Real Madrid

Despite Ancelotti’s confidence, the issue of Vinicius Jr.’s contract renewal has generated widespread debate. According to Antonio García of La Ser, the Brazilian forward is unwilling to accept an extension worth 20 million euros net per year, as he reportedly expects an even higher offer.
>However, García also reports that Vinicius remains calm about the situation, as his current contract with the club runs until 2027.
