Courted by Saudi Arabia, who are offering him a golden bridge, Vinicius Jr should wait until the end of this season to make a choice regarding his future.

This is the rumor that has Real Madrid fans trembling. After attracting Karim Benzema and Neymar last summer, the leaders of Saudi football want to get Vinicius Jr. And the Brazilian striker did not say no.

According to ESPN, “Vini” has decided… that he will decide later. It is at the end of the season that the former Flamengo player will take the time to reflect and consider his future. The prospect of winning the Ballon d’Or would encourage him to take his time before leaving Real Madrid.

An XXL salary for Vinicius

However, the XXL salary offered by Saudi Arabia is something to think about. No specific offer has been made, but a crazy salary of 350 million euros per year has been mentioned. This would make Vinicius the highest paid footballer of all time, and by far. No sportsman has received such a salary offer.

The other obstacle to this operation is the position of Real Madrid, who absolutely do not want to sell their jewel, and rely on the release clause of 1 billion euros present in his contract. The Saudis would think that the Merengues could agree to lower this sum next summer, while Vinicius will only have two years left on his contract. This could be the big saga of next summer.
