Real Madrid Issue Ultimatum to Vinicius Jr. Over Contract Talks
Real Madrid have reportedly drawn a firm line in the sand when it comes to the future of their star winger Vinicius Jr.
As per a report from El Debate, the Spanish giants have informed the Brazilian that he must agree to a new deal before June 2026 — or face being placed on the transfer list. The club is determined not to lose the player on a free transfer.
While Vinicius still has two years left on his current contract, negotiations for an extension have dragged on for months without progress. The primary sticking point? His wage demands.
Sources claim the 23-year-old is seeking a salary that would make him the highest earner at the club — a request Real Madrid considers financially unsustainable. Club president Florentino Perez and the board reportedly have no intention of compromising the wage structure for any player.
Behind the scenes, it’s believed Vinicius’ representatives are playing the long game, aiming to delay agreement until 2026 — when only one year remains on his contract — to put extra pressure on the club.
