Vinicius Júnior still has his contract renewal pending with Real Madrid (ESP) amid the end of the European football season. As a result, the former Flamengo player has put the situation aside and revealed that he is 100% focused on the World Cup with the Brazil National Team.
— My renewal with Real Madrid? I’m focused on the Brazil National Team right now. I’ll talk about Real Madrid when the World Cup is over and the next season begins —, began Vinicius Júnior this Friday (12).
Vinicius Júnior is under contract with Real Madrid until June of next year. Therefore, renewing the Brazilian player’s deal is considered crucial and is being treated as the top priority by the Spanish club’s board.
However, Vinicius Júnior and Real Madrid remain deadlocked in negotiations to extend the former Flamengo forward’s contract. It is worth noting that, starting in January next year, the No. 7 will be able to sign a pre-contract with any club in the world.
Vinicius Júnior posted positive numbers for Real Madrid last season, even though the Spanish team did not win any titles. The former Flamengo player appeared in 53 matches, scored 22 goals, and provided ten assists for his teammates.
On the other hand, Vinicius Júnior has put the negotiations aside and returned his focus to the Brazil National Team. The Real Madrid player, who came through at Flamengo, is the team’s main technical reference under Carlo Ancelotti. In this way, the player is trying to help Brazil win the world title after 24 years.
— There are still eight matches left; I can change this story for our country and for the players. I’m not talking about goals or assists, but about playing well and giving the team confidence. It doesn’t matter how many goals I score. What really matters is how far we can go —, concluded the former Flamengo player.
Brazil is in World Cup Group C alongside Morocco, Haiti, and Scotland. The Brazil National Team faces the African side in its tournament opener. It is worth noting that the top two teams in each group, along with the best third-placed teams, advance to the round of 16.
With Vinicius Júnior available, the Brazil National Team will make its World Cup debut this Saturday (13) against Morocco at 7:00 p.m. (Brasília time) in New Jersey, United States. Therefore, Coluna do Fla will bring all the information about the match and the Flamengo players involved in the clash.
