The contract is ending. Will there be a renewal?

The Vinicius case has become the major debate among Madridistas. The Brazilian, whose contract ends in 2027, is at the center of a showdown that mixes football, money, and pride. The Bernabéu crowd has already made their displeasure known with boos against Alavés, and although the player apologized after scoring a goal, the feeling is that the relationship is at a delicate point.

The peculiarity of the new contract

According to MundoDeportivo, Vinicius wants to earn the same as Mbappé. Real Madrid, however, was adamant. He offered him more money, yes, but never more than to the Frenchman. That difference is what keeps the renewal stalled. In fact, the club even considered selling him this summer if he didn't sign, although Florentino Pérez flatly ruled out that option.

For the president, Vinicius's continuity is a matter of state. Florentino is convinced that the Brazilian is irreplaceable and that there is no one in the market capable of taking his place. That's why he decided to take the reins of the negotiation, and his goal is to close the deal before the World Cup.

Meanwhile, Vinicius repeats that he wants to stay at Real Madrid, but he shows no rush to sign. That lack of urgency creates noise: is it really his desire to stay or is he measuring every step to pressure the club?

¿How will it end?

The truth is that Vinicius's future is at stake on two fronts: on the field, where he needs to regain the connection with the fans, and in the Valdebebas offices, where Florentino seeks to secure him as a key piece of the project. The Brazilian has already realized that if he doesn't change, the Bernabéu will continue to boo him. And Madrid, for its part, knows that losing him would be a blow hard to bear.
