For the past six months, Real Madrid has been talking about contract renewal with Vinicius. Recently, many media have stated that Real Madrid and Vinicius' contract renewal work is coming to an end, and Real Madrid will announce that Vinicius will stay in the team as soon as the season ends. However, Marca said that things are far from as simple as fans imagine.

It is reported that Real Madrid has suspended negotiations with Vinicius because Florentino is angry. In the early stages of negotiations, Vinicius proposed a sky-high price (note: Spanish media did not disclose the specific numbers), which was rejected by Real Madrid in seconds. Real Madrid executives clearly emphasized that the club's salary structure is like a legal provision and cannot be challenged.

After being rejected, Vinicius lowered his annual salary demand, but this number still made Real Madrid unsatisfied. "Marca" revealed that Vinicius asked Real Madrid for an annual salary of 30 million euros, which is far beyond Real Madrid's psychological price. Vinicius' current annual salary is 17 million euros, which is the highest level in Real Madrid.

Real Madrid is unwilling to give in, and Lord Buddha repeatedly emphasized that the club can only provide Vinicius with an annual salary of 20 million euros. Since Vinicius was unwilling to compromise, the negotiations between the two sides were deadlocked. In order to show his tough attitude, Real Madrid directly suspended negotiations.

The Saudi League has always been "remembering" with Vinicius. Previously, Saudi Arabia provided Vinicius with an amazing five-year, 1 billion euros contract, but Brazilians think they are still young and have not yet reached the point of going to Saudi Arabia to retire. Vinicius still hopes to win the Golden Balls at Real Madrid.

This season, Vinicius made a total of 51 appearances for Real Madrid, scoring 21 goals and assisting 15 times, and his overall performance has declined compared to last season. Mbappe's arrival compressed Vinicius's ball rights.
