Real Madrid will seek €150m for Vinicius if renewal fails after improved €22m contract offer According to ESPN , Real Madrid are set to hold a decisive round of contract talks with Vinicius Jr.’s representatives this week, but the club have no intention of increasing their latest renewal offer despite the ongoing deadlock. As reported earlier today , Real Madrid recently improved their proposal following the World Cup, offering the Brazilian a package worth around €22 million per season. However, club sources insist that figure represents their limit. Significant gap remains While negotiations are set to resume, the two sides remain some distance apart financially. Vinicius is seeking a salary of around €30 million per year, leaving a considerable gap between his demands and Real Madrid’s final offer. The Brazilian currently earns approximately €17.5 million annually and is entering the final year of his contract, which expires in June 2027. No resolution in sight.

Leading the negotiations on Real Madrid’s side will be chief scout Juni Calafat, who has played a central role in pushing for Vinicius to remain at the club. Despite the financial differences, both parties remain in contact as they attempt to find common ground. The player and his representatives believe this renewal is the defining contract of his career. At 26 years old, they feel Vinicius deserves to be rewarded for everything he has contributed since arriving from Flamengo in 2018, including scoring in two UEFA Champions League finals and becoming one of the club’s most influential players. €150 million fee if no agreement If no agreement is reached, Vinicius will be able to negotiate a pre-contract with overseas clubs from January, before potentially leaving on a free transfer at the end of the season.

According to the report, the Merengues would seek a transfer fee of around €150 million, despite the winger having only one year remaining on his contract. Arsenal remain in the fray Vinicius has been heavily linked with Premier League champions Arsenal throughout the summer, although no formal agreement has been reached with any interested club. However, talks have taken place between the player’s camp and the Gunners in the background, and there is a sense of growing optimism at the Emirates Stadium regarding a mvoe. For now, the Brazilian has returned to work under new manager Jose Mourinho, completing medical tests and his first training sessions after his post-World Cup holiday while his future continues to dominate headlines. The coming days are expected to be crucial in determining whether one of Real Madrid’s biggest stars commits his long-term future to the club or whether the standoff moves into an even more uncertain phase.
