Real Madrid (ESP) has decided what to do with Vini Jr after the controversy with coach Xabi Alonso during the clásico against Barcelona (ESP). The situation is simple: the Merengue team has decided not to punish the former Flamengo player, who is experiencing tense moments with the coach.
The Real Madrid squad was given two days off after their 2-1 victory over Barcelona, and the team is scheduled to return on Wednesday (29). However, the decision to discuss the controversy with Vini Jr will be left exclusively to Xabi Alonso.
Internally, some Real Madrid directors believe that Vini Jr’s behavior ‘went too far’. However, this does not come as a surprise to the directors, since the coach’s relationship with some players has become strained.
In the last 13 matches of the season, Vini Jr started on the bench three times and was in the starting lineup ten times. However, the forward played the full 90 minutes only three times. In other words, he is frequently substituted.
Vini Jr will return to the field only on Saturday (01), against Valencia (ESP), for the 11th round of the Spanish Championship. The match is scheduled to take place at 5 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Santiago Bernabéu.
