Stalemate at Bernabeu: Vinicius Jr’s Contract Saga Takes New Twist

The future of Vinicius Junior at Real Madrid's come under renewed doubt with contract extension talks facing obstacles over financial terms.

Negotiations Hit a Roadblock

Reports from Spain suggest discussions between Real Madrid & their Brazilian forward have slowed due to the player’s salary requests which the club views as exceeding its strict financial policy.

Perez Open to Raise (With Conditions)

According to Sport, president Florentino Perez isn't opposed to making Vinicius the club’s highest paid player.

However this would only happen if the wage increase doesn't break Madrid’s internal salary cap.

Vinicius Using His Importance as Leverage

The 24 year old attacker's reportedly pressing the club by highlighting his importance to the team making negotiations increasingly complex.

Real Madrid remain firm on protecting wage balance to avoid destabilizing finances especially under La liga & Spanish FA regulations.
