One of the biggest stories shaping up from the global world of football is the brewing news regarding a potential transfer involving Vinicius Jr. In the wake of intense speculation following the forward’s Real Madrid with a decision not to attend the Ballon d’Or ceremony reportedly over disappointment over the forward failing to win the award, the PSG has put in its bid at €250 million.
Paris Saint-Germain hopes Vinicius will be the type of player to inject life into their attack, which would bring much-needed speed, flair, and creativity, especially considering the key loss of players like Mbappé. They rely on Vinicius to power their Champions League ambitions and to fortify their Ligue 1 aspirations.
Saudi transfer rumors
It appears that Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia offered a higher sum – €300m more for the Brazilian. Real Madrid do not want to lose one of their most valued players. On the other hand, there are some lucrative offers on the table.
Apparently, Al-Hilal, the Saudi Pro League club, is planning an even more monumental offer that would surpass even the record transfer fee of Neymar. If so, Vinicius would replace Neymar in Al-Hilal’s team, and the Saudi club will try to get a footing among the world’s top clubs with such transfers. The reported amount of €300 million indicates how far Saudi clubs are ready to go in recruiting elite talent so that the league can become more popular on the world stage.
Vinicius replacement
Vinicius is also linked with Chelsea. According to TeamTalk, Real Madrid said that they are looking at other alternatives, such as Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman, if Vinicius leaves. Vinicius has been with Real since 2018 and they have invested massively into developing him.
