A recent report by Romain Molina has revealed that Real Madrid president, Florentino Perez, is not entirely opposed to the idea of selling Vinicius Jr, even if it means making the largest transfer sale in football history.
The Brazilian winger’s potential move to Saudi Arabia has been a topic of discussion for some time, and it seems the Middle Eastern league is still determined to secure his signature.
Although the initial reports surfaced during the summer, they have not faded away. Saudi Arabian clubs made a massive offer to Vinicius in the past, one that turned many heads.
Despite this, Vinicius chose to remain at Real Madrid, a decision that seemed to stem partly from the overwhelming financial offer from the Middle East.
The significant salary offered by Saudi Arabia raised concerns among some in the Real Madrid camp, with many believing it could have affected the player’s concentration.

However, according to the latest information, Saudi Arabia remains resolute in their pursuit of Vinicius. The country has reportedly not given up on bringing the Brazilian to their league.
He is considered their top target, and they will continue pushing for the move unless Vinicius publicly declares his commitment to Real Madrid and his desire to ignore any offers from abroad.
At present, Vinicius, along with Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe, is seen as one of Real Madrid’s key marketing assets. Given his status at the club, it seems unlikely that a sale would happen anytime soon.
However, Perez is known for his savvy business approach in football and has a reputation for making bold decisions when it comes to transfers.
While he may not actively seek to sell Vinicius, he is not entirely opposed to the idea if it means achieving a record-breaking transfer deal in the future.
