Vinicius Jr. has rejected Real Madrid’s first proposal for a contract renewal, according to a report by The Athletic.
The Brazilian forward, who has been a key figure for Los Blancos in recent seasons, is currently under contract with the club.
However, negotiations over an extension have yet to reach an agreement, with the 23-year-old declining the initial terms put forward by Real Madrid’s management.
The rejection does not necessarily indicate an imminent departure, but it suggests that discussions may take longer than expected.
The club remains keen to secure Vinicius Jr.’s future at the Santiago Bernabéu, while the player’s camp is expected to continue talks in search of improved terms.
Vinicius Jr. has been instrumental for Real Madrid, delivering crucial performances and establishing himself as a key asset in attack.
His importance to the team has grown significantly, particularly after the departure of senior figures in recent seasons.
While the reasons behind his decision to reject the first offer remain unclear, negotiations between the two parties are set to continue in the coming weeks.
Real Madrid will now have to reassess their proposal as they look to ensure the long-term commitment of one of their most influential players.
