Real Madrid and Vinícius Júnior are set to sit down to discuss a contract extension for the Brazilian forward. With his current deal expiring on June 30, 2027, the clock is ticking for one of world football’s most valuable players to lock in his future at the Bernabéu.
The talks come after discussions stalled earlier in July, reportedly pushed back to follow the World Cup window. Club president Florentino Pérez has personally inserted himself into the discussions.
The money on the table
Real Madrid’s initial offer to Júnior was reportedly around €20 million net per season. He turned it down.
Júnior wants compensation comparable to what his teammate Kylian Mbappé earns. The club remains optimistic about reaching a deal, and Pérez’s direct involvement is widely interpreted as a positive signal. The two reportedly share a strong personal rapport.
