Trusted journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Real Madrid club, and specifically its president Florentino Pérez, strongly desire to keep the Brazilian star Vinicius Junior, noting that his current contract expires in the summer of 2027.

According to Romano, the renewal offer has been on the table for some time, and the financial aspect is clearly presented, indicating the club management's seriousness in securing the continuation of one of the key pillars of the sports project.

The source explained that Vinicius has shown a clear openness to negotiate the renewal of his contract after the departure of Xabi Alonso, as his stance has changed recently and he is now more inclined to continue with Real Madrid.

Romano pointed out that the player was not comfortable with his situation under Xabi Alonso, as the relationship between the two parties experienced tension at times; although their relationship improved, it never reached perfection.

The source concluded that negotiations for Vinicius’s contract renewal had recently stalled due to his dissatisfaction with his relationship with the former coach, but with Xabi Alonso's departure, Real Madrid hopes this will help facilitate the player's decision to renew his contract.
