Vinicius Jnr closing in on committing his future to Real Madrid by signing a new deal

Real Madrid superstar, Vinicius Jnr is reportedly closing in on committing his future to Spanish Club by signing a new deal.

Since joining Real from Flamengo for £38 million at the age of 18,  Vinicius, 24, has scored 105 goals with 79 assists to his name. He has won 14 trophies with the Spanish giants, including two Champions League titles.

Reports have continued to link Vinicius with a move to Saudi Arabia, while he was said to have rejected an original contract offer from Real.

Earlier this year, it was claimed Vinicius was offered a five-year deal worth £830m to play in Saudi in a deal that would also see him become an ambassador for the 2034 World Cup that takes place in the kingdom.

According to Marca, Vinicius is set to end the speculation by extending and improving his contract with Real.

The report claims an agreement is close to being finalised, with the Brazilian’s new deal set to run until 2030.

Both Real and Vinicius are on the same page over their future plans, and the club is confident that it is only a matter of time until the new deal is signed, potentially before the end of the season.

When pressed on his future back in February, Vinicius – who has won 39 caps for Brazil – had hinted his future lies with Real.

‘I have a contract until 2027, but I have always said that I want to play here for a long time, to be able to make history and to receive the affection of the fans along with the president, all the players and the coaching staff,’ he said.

‘And God willing, hopefully in the next few days all the negotiations can be resolved and I can stay here for much longer.’
