⚠️ Vini Jr. reportedly tells Real he doesn't want to renew, find out why | OneFootball

Vinicius Jr is reportedly not willing to renew his contract with Real Madrid while his relationship with coach Xabi Alonso remains "tense".

This is highlighted by journalist Mario Cortegana from The Athletic this Monday (24).

Vini Jr. has even informed Real president Florentino Pérez about this decision.

His contract with the Spanish club runs until June 30, 2027. Negotiations for an extension are currently on hold. 

Vini has lost his undisputed starter status since the arrival of the Spanish coach. 

He drew attention by openly complaining after being substituted in the last El Clásico on the 26th. 

The Brazilian started on the bench again last Sunday (23) in La Liga. He came on 12 minutes into the second half, and the league leaders drew 2-2 with Elche.

This was Real’s third consecutive match without a win, following the defeat to Liverpool (1-0) and the 0-0 draw with Rayo Vallecano.

Vini has played 17 matches this season—13 of them as a starter. He has scored five goals and provided four assists.

Madrid’s next challenge will be on Wednesday (26), when they visit Olympiacos in Greece. The match is part of the fifth round of the Champions League league phase.
