Vinicius Júnior has not yet renewed his contract with Real Madrid (ESP), and the top clubs in European football continue to keep an eye on the former Flamengo player. As a result, Manchester City (ENG) are trying to sign the former Rubro-Negro player for next season.
According to TEAMtalk, Manchester City are monitoring the situation of Vinicius Júnior. At the moment, the former Flamengo player is in talks with Real Madrid to extend his contract, but if there is no positive outcome, the English club are willing to make an offer.
In addition to Manchester City, two other English clubs are also keeping an eye on Vinicius Júnior. Arsenal (ENG), the current Champions League finalist, and Chelsea (ENG) are also monitoring the situation of the forward developed by Flamengo.
Vinicius Júnior is an absolute priority at Real Madrid. Recently, Florentino Pérez said that renewing the former Flamengo player’s contract is considered crucial and that he wants to keep the forward. However, the negotiations have already been going on for months and still have not reached a conclusion.
In addition, Real Madrid are going through a tense period behind the scenes involving other players. First, Kylian Mbappé has been at the center of internal controversy. Finally, Tchouaméni and Valverde got into a fight and exchanged punches, with the Uruguayan even ending up in the hospital.
Vinicius Júnior has played 50 matches for Real Madrid. During that time, the former Flamengo player has recorded 21 goals and ten assists for his teammates. In fact, the Brazilian could break his own record for goals in a single season.
