Real Madrid Rallies to Secure Vinicius Jr Following Ballon d’Or Disappointment

After Vinicius Junior’s shocking absence from the Ballon d’Or stage, Real Madrid is making moves to lock down their rising star. Following the news that neither Vini Jr nor any Real Madrid players would attend the ceremony, where Manchester City’s Rodri claimed the prize, Los Blancos are ready to reward their standout winger with a lucrative new contract.

This moment comes amid a rare lull for the explosive Brazilian, as Real Madrid suffered a 4-0 El Clasico loss to Barcelona just days earlier. Despite his Ballon d’Or miss, Vini Jr has been unstoppable for Madrid this season, racking up eight goals and seven assists in 15 matches—a run that reinforces his crucial role in the team.

Sources indicate that Real Madrid’s front office has been planning this contract renewal for months, fully aware that Vinicius wants to shine as a central figure, especially after Kylian Mbappe’s rumored summer arrival from PSG. Madrid’s intention? To secure Vini Jr not only as a star but as a potential Ballon d’Or winner they believe he deserves to be.

A tempting €1 billion offer from the Saudi Pro League looms on the horizon, reportedly available from 2025. While Vini Jr’s Real Madrid contract extends until 2027, the Saudis are rumored to be willing to pay him €1 billion over five seasons—a figure Madrid would struggle to match.

Yet Vini Jr has often expressed his love for Madrid, recently stating, “I want to be here forever and achieve many things with this club.” For now, he’s biding his time to discuss new terms, but Madrid remains confident their rising superstar is here to stay.
