Vinícius Júnior's Real Madrid Future Under Spotlight
The ongoing debate about Vinícius Júnior's future at Real Madrid remains the subject of intense attention.
According to Mundo Deportivo, talks over extending his contract have yet to reach a final decision.
The report warns Madrid may need to sell the player next summer to cash in before his deal expires in 2027.
The Radio Marca, meanwhile, says the final fate could be decided soon, with a determination on Vinícius coming shortly.
The Brazilian winger is not expected to leave Real Madrid, and president Florentino Pérez remains reluctant to sell.
One question echoed by Marca is whether anyone in the market is currently more appealing than Vinícius.
Marca's report closes by highlighting the Brazilian's clear and impressive influence on the pitch and promising an announcement soon.
So far this season Vinícius has scored 5 goals in 24 appearances for Madrid.
Some outlets even linked him to a lucrative proposal from a Saudi Pro League club.
As the saga unfolds, Real Madrid's stance remains that Vinícius is a key asset whose potential sale is not on the agenda.
