Tensions between Vinicius Junior and Xabi Alonso are set to impact the Brazilian’s future. Since January, he has been in discussions with Real Madrid over a contract extension—his current deal runs until June 2027—but the Brazil international has told Madrid president Florentino Pérez he won’t sign a new contract as long as his relationship with the Spanish coach remains this strained. That’s according to a report from The Athletic on Monday.

After his anger when he was substituted against FC Barcelona (2-1) in La Liga on October 26, Vinicius personally met with the club’s president to apologize. It was during this meeting that the Madrid star made his intentions clear about his future: he doesn’t want to extend his contract because of Alonso.
