There’s no rush in the air at Valdebebas when it comes to Vinicius Jr.’s future. While a contract extension isn’t expected any time soon, there’s no tension either. According to AS, both the club and the Brazilian star share a deep mutual understanding built on years of trust and loyalty, a bond that allows the situation to unfold without pressure.
Since joining Real Madrid at just 18, Vinicius has been one of Florentino Pérez’s most cherished players, not just for his brilliance on the pitch, but also for the heart he’s shown off it. His decision to reject higher offers to wear the white shirt marked a commitment that hasn’t gone unnoticed. The club president has responded with rare gestures of affection, from seating him by his side at the Bernabéu after the infamous Mestalla incident to halting a flight for the Ballon d’Or gala in a show of solidarity.
Vinicius is currently tied to Madrid until 2027 on a salary close to €15 million net per season. Talks of a new deal have been brewing since February, and while his agent, Frederico Pena, remains on standby, there’s no urgency and no friction. In fact, Vinicius has already turned down a staggering offer from Saudi Arabia, reiterating that his priority is Madrid. Those around him wouldn’t be surprised if renewal talks were postponed until 2026.
For now, his focus is entirely on football, on thriving under Xabi Alonso and reaching even greater heights. With 22 goals and 16 assists last season, and a track record of more than 120 goals in nearly 400 matches for Los Blancos, Vinicius is not just part of Real Madrid’s present; he’s shaping its future.
