A former Atlético great has spoken of his admiration for the rival club’s star Vinicius Jr.

Atlético Madrid legend Paulo Futre admits he is a fan of Real Madrid striker Vinicius Jr. A statement that may not please Matelassiers fans too much.

“Vinicius Jr is unstoppable if he’s on a good day”

Ahead of Sunday’s derby, which could be crucial for the title, Futre indicated that Vini Jr is Real’s most dangerous player.

He said in an interview with Marca: “At Real Madrid, the most decisive player will be Vinicius; he is a very dangerous player, who unbalances and who can win a match on his own. It’s a phenomenon. If he’s having his day, he’s unstoppable.”

Recently in Spain, there have been controversies in Spain regarding the fact that Real are supposedly favored by the referees. On this subject, the former Portuguese international confided: “I hope it will be a great match and that there will be no mistakes for or against either team. The most important thing is sportsmanship and that it’s a good match.”
