As reported by Defensa Central, Manchester United is prepared to make a substantial investment to acquire Real Madrid’s star player.
Vinicius Junior, who initially rose through the ranks at Flamengo before joining Real Madrid in the summer of 2018, has evolved into one of the premier strikers in the sport since his arrival at Los Blancos. Despite limited playing time in the early years, exposure to and learning from established stars facilitated his rapid development. In recent seasons, the Samba star has become an integral part of the Real squad.
During the previous season, the Brazilian international participated in 55 matches, contributing 44 goals. In the current season, Vinicius has already made an impact with 6 goals in 10 appearances. While he recently committed his future to Real with a contract until 2027, sources from Defensa Central suggest that Manchester United is actively pursuing the former Flamengo prodigy.
The English club is reportedly willing to offer Vinicius an annual salary of 20 million euros if he agrees to make the move to Old Trafford, doubling his current earnings under the new contract with Real Madrid.
However, this potential deal is expected to be highly intricate, given that Real Madrid considers Vinicius a crucial element of their plans. Additionally, the Brazilian player has expressed satisfaction with his current situation at the club.
