Real Madrid superstar’s camp refuses to meet club until contract offer is improved

Real Madrid superstar’s camp refuses to meet club until contract offer is improved A lot has been said about the Vinicius Jr. contract renewal saga at Real Madrid, for the player and the club are once again at odds after reportedly being close to an agreement. Just when everything appeared set for the player to return from vacation and sign his renewal, the two parties have again hit a roadblock on the economic front with Los Blancos’ offer falling reasonably short of Vinicius’ expectations. Needless to say, the club have stood firm on their offer and refused to dance to the player’s tune. They maintain that they will not hesitate to sell the player immediately if an agreement cannot be reached. Internal unrest As reported by Ramon Alvarez in a recent update, Vinicius’ entourage is experiencing severe internal tension due to all the rumours being spread about the player and his future in the media.

The misrepresentation of facts, needless to say, hurts the player’s close circle. As matters stand, Vinicius’ agents are refusing to hold any meeting with Real Madrid’s management until the club raises their economic offer to the player’s liking. As matters stand, the figure they are offering stands around the €20 million mark. A difference of 25% As relayed in recent weeks, the figure Vinicius Jr. is demanding from Real Madrid is the same as what Kylian Mbappe currently earns at the club and the player is pushing to be placed on the same slab. A complicated renewal saga.

The Brazilian star’s expectations exceed Real Madrid’s offer of €20 million by €6 million to €10 million – a number that is significantly higher than the current proposal. Going purely based on how far the two parties currently are, the chances of an agreement materialising appear highly complicated. One of the two parties must cave into the pressure of the other if the deal is to go through at this point.
