“It is always an honour the affection I receive from these fans and the one I have for them. I am very happy to play here and I want to continue playing here for the rest of my life.” said Vinicius
The 23-year-old striker was a fan favourite after scoring the game-winning goal for Los Blancos in the 2022 Champions League final. In 2018, the Brazilian transferred to the Santiago Bernabeu. Since then, Vinicius has made over 230 appearances, scoring on 62 times.
The South American is only under contract until the summer of 2024. Although new terms have been discussed for some time. Vinicius has declared that he wishes to finish his career with the Spanish giants.
Vinicius has developed into one of the most exciting players in the world. However, he has faced an unusual test during his time in the Spanish capital. This has inevitably fuelled transfer speculation, with Manchester United and Liverpool reportedly showing interest.
Vinicius has always enjoyed the support of the Santiago Bernabeu faithful. Thus the Brazilian striker is well aware of how special it is. Vinicius has had some difficult moments in Spain, but he has always been one of the most respected players at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The Brazilian forward finished off a strong performance against Osasuna, scoring one goal and providing one assist in the 4-0 victory. Los Blancos will need him to keep performing at a high level if they are to preserve their advantage in the standings.
