Vinicius is not in a hurry to renew his contract? Behind the tacit understanding between Real Madrid and the Bears is the salary balance strategy

The contract renewal negotiations between Vinicius and Real Madrid seem to be held until 2026. On the surface, it seems calm, and neither side says it is in a hurry, but there are many highlights waiting to be discovered under this calm.

The Bear has two years left in the contract, and he is really not panicked at all. ? Because he was determined to stay in Real Madrid. Saudi Arabia wanted to poach him with a sky-high contract, but he directly refused. He feels that he is in the best club and can win all the championships, and the team values him. The agent Pena is waiting for Real Madrid to take the initiative to discuss, even if it is 2026. Vinicius now wants to concentrate on playing football, help Mbappe integrate into it, and regain his form in competing for the Golden Ball Awards. Don’t forget his data: he has stable output in the past few seasons, basically 20 goals and 15 assists per season, which is the absolute core of Real Madrid.

Real Madrid certainly knows the value of Vinicius. Chairman Florentino and Winnie are close and trust him very much. The club also understands that if you want to find another winger like Vinicius, it will cost astronomical numbers. His current net worth is as high as 170 million euros, the top five in the world! But Real Madrid also has a headache: the payroll pressure is too great.

Vinicius now has an annual salary of 15 million euros after tax. He wants to increase his salary, and his goal is to be about 20 million after tax. But the problem is that Mbappe just came to have a basic annual salary of 15 million, but there are also a series of signing fees and other bonus policies. Bellingham played well and wanted to raise his salary. If Vinicius is set this precedent, the entire salary structure may not be able to hold back. Real Madrid has to be careful.

So, both sides tacitly chose to drag. For Vinicius, he was loyal and believed that he would be able to negotiate in the end. For Real Madrid, let’s see if Vinicius can maintain its peak form under the new coach Alonso, especially after the arrival of Mbappe? Balance the salary requirements of top stars such as Mbappe, Vinicius, and Bellingham to avoid internal imbalances. There are also superstars such as Enderick and Mastantono in the team who are growing up. Although they cannot replace Winnie at the moment, they are also a variable in the future.

Vinitius and Real Madrid have no rifts, and it will be a matter of time before the contract renewal is completed. But how to sign this new contract, especially how much salary increases, has become a hurdle that both parties need to be careful to overcome. Postponing negotiations is more like a common choice based on trust and reality considerations. Vinicius' on-field performance and Real Madrid's financial management in the next two years will directly determine the final structure of this contract.
