Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior’s representatives have refuted recent reports suggesting that the Brazilian is on the verge of signing a contract extension with the club.
Despite claims that a new deal extending his stay until 2030 is imminent, Vinicius’s camp insists that no agreement has been reached and that negotiations have stalled since initial discussions in January.
Vinicius, who is of Cameroonian heritage, is reportedly seeking a salary package of approximately €30 million per year, aligning with the highest earners in the club’s history, such as Cristiano Ronaldo.
Real Madrid’s previous offer ranged between €15 million and €20 million annually, which was rejected by the player’s camp.
They maintain that the club has yet to present a revised proposal, leaving the ball in Madrid’s court.
The 24-year-old winger has been a pivotal figure for Los Blancos, contributing significantly to their attacking prowess.
His performances have attracted attention from clubs worldwide, with reports of lucrative offers from the Saudi Pro League.
However, Vinicius has expressed a desire to continue his career at the Santiago Bernabéu, provided his contract expectations are met.
With his current contract set to expire in 2027, the coming months will be crucial in determining whether an agreement can be reached to secure his long-term future with the Spanish giants.
