Report – How Real Madrid manager played a crucial role in the Vinicius’ renewal From absolute uncertainty to an official announcement , the contract renewal saga of Vinicius Jr. changed in under 24 hours after just one meeting between Real Madrid’s administration and the player’s entourage. What played a big role, needless to say, was Real Madrid presenting a new proposal with wages closer to what the player was demanding – a move that made Vinicius feel valued and enabled him to provide his green light. That was, however, not the only factor that helped an agreement be reached. As reported by COPE (h/t Madrid Xtra ), Real Madrid’s new manager Jose Mourinho also played a massive part. A series of conversations Indeed, as reported by the Spanish outlet, Mourinho was absolutely key in the player’s renewal and directly intervened to ensure the player stayed.

Further, the duo even spoke several times after training. Mourinho and the player share a good relationship now despite all the debacles of last season’s UEFA Champions League. The manager made the winger feel loved, and that changed everything. An unbreakable bond Just under a week ago, there was serious uncertainty about whether or not Vinicius would be a Real Madrid player next season, but it still always remained clear that both parties wanted to continue working together deep down.

To a large extent, he is the global icon he is today because of Real Madrid’s influence on his career. In that sense, the player and club share an unbreakable bond, one that will now run until 2032. The long-term contract secures the player’s future and prime years to the Spanish capital. Next season, the Brazilian will be part of a special trident alongside Kylian Mbappe and the new signing Yan Diomande, and it is safe to say that the trio will be terrifying on the break. What Vinicius personally will look to do, however, is improve his chemistry with Mbappe which was surprisingly poor last season.
