Saudi Arabia ready to break the bank for a Real Madrid star

Saudi Arabia wants to snatch a star from Real Madrid

The future of Vinicius Junior could well unfold far from Madrid. According to Cadena SER, the Brazilian winger is considering leaving Real Madrid at the end of the 2025-2026 season. Courted for two years already, the Merengues’ number 7 is now at the center of a massive bid from Saudi Arabia. Gulf clubs are reportedly preparing an offer exceeding €250 million, an unprecedented sum in football history.

Having become a co-star at Real since the arrival of Kylian Mbappé in the summer of 2024, Vinicius could well be tempted by a record-breaking contract, a symbol of Saudi financial might already shown by the arrivals of Cristiano Ronaldo and Riyad Mahrez. Should this deal materialize, it would once again shake up the global transfer market and force Real to rethink its project around the Mbappé-Bellingham duo.
