Real Madrid won’t budge to superstar’s demands, says journalist – ‘If he wants to leave for free, they’ll accept’ | OneFootball

At 25 years of age and with a contract running until June 2027, Vinicius Jr.’s extension with Real Madrid remains at a standstill, unchanged from the point reached several months ago.

The Merengues made him an offer which did not satisfy the Brazilian, who seeks to match the salary of Kylian Mbappe. However, the club are not willing to accept this request.

As reported earlier today, Real Madrid’s position on the matter is firm – the offer is on the table and it will not be modified.

Now, journalist Josep Pedrerol, presenter of El Chiringuito, revealed that Real Madrid could even allow Vinicius to leave for free when his contract expires in a year and a half.

“The market is one thing but Madrid do not care. As information I say that Madrid do not care what Vinicius does,” claimed Pedrerol.

He added: “The conditions are stipulated, therefore there is nothing to discuss. If he accepts the first ones, he has renewed; if he wants to earn more than Mbappe, he has to leave in a year and a half.

“Madrid are not going to force, nor are they going to be: ‘come on, please, renew’. And if later he does not renew, in January it will come out cheaper for me.”

Pedrerol went further, saying: “Madrid have even considered: ‘look, he cost €45 million… if in a year and a half he wants to leave for free, Madrid are going to accept it. Madrid do not want anyone who does not want to be here.

“If Vinicius does not want to renew, does not want to be here, Madrid are not going to force him. They are not going to say: ‘come on then, more than Mbappe.’”

Concluding, Pedrerol said; “They have not done it with anyone. With more important players they have not done it either. If Vinicius believes that Madrid are nervous because time passes, advice: ‘you have a problem.’”
