Vinicius Júnior's Future Remains Uncertain at Real Madrid (ESP)

The future of Vinicius Júnior remains uncertain at Real Madrid (ESP), as the player has not come to terms with the fans and the renewal negotiations are currently stalled. Consequently, Saudi Arabia is attempting to sign the athlete with a billion-dollar offer, and Flamengo could profit.

According to the English newspaper The Telegraph, the Saudi Arabian investment fund is preparing an offer of 200 million pounds (£1.4 billion at the current exchange rate) for Vinicius Júnior. Thus, the future of the former Flamengo forward could be decided in the coming months.

HOW MUCH CAN FLAMENGO RECEIVE FOR VINI JR?

Flamengo is entitled to receive a portion of any negotiation involving Vinicius Júnior. This is because Mengão holds 2.5% of the amount due to FIFA's solidarity mechanism. In other words, from the £1.4 billion, Flamengo would receive £35 million.

WHAT IS THE SAUDI ARABIAN INVESTMENT FUND?

The Saudi Arabian investment fund was created to allocate government resources to strategic projects and diversify the country's economy. The idea is to boost areas by 2030, including football. Thus, the government itself owns clubs like Al Hilal (SAU), Al Nassr (SAU), and Al Ittihad (SAU).

WHAT IS VINI JR'S SITUATION AT REAL MADRID?

Vinicius Júnior has not yet renewed his contract with Real Madrid, even though the Spanish club has made an offer. Additionally, the former Flamengo player was booed by his own fans last Saturday (17), during the Spanish Championship.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Thus, Flamengo, Vinicius Júnior's former team, remains focused on the upcoming challenges of the season. This is because the Most Beloved faces Fluminense on Sunday (25), at Maracanã, at 6 PM (Brasília time). Thus, Coluna do Fla provides all the information.
