Vinicius Junior's contract with Real Madrid is still valid until June 30, 2027, but the club's management has begun discussions with the player's representatives to discuss the renewal issue, amid new financial demands from the Brazilian star.

According to the Spanish newspaper "AS", Vinicius currently receives a net annual salary of 15 million euros, but he is demanding an increase of 5 million euros, bringing his annual salary to 20 million euros.
