Real Madrid and Brazilian star Vinicius Jr. has signed a new deal with the Spanish club until the summer of 2032. Real Madrid have announced shortly after the signing of Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig for a record club fee. Vinicius, who joined Real Madrid from Flamengo in 2018, has been one of the best players in recent years and has signed a long-term deal for six more years despite rumors of a possible interest coming from Arsenal. The Brazilian star wrote on Instagram: "Eight years at the Bernabeu is a short time, six more years and forever!"
Real Madrid announced the contract on social media.
"Real Madrid C. F. and Vinicius Jr. have agreed on the extension of our player's contract, which links him to the club until June 30, 2032. His contribution to all these titles has been pivotal due to his gameplay, assists, and goals, including those scored in the last two Champions League finals won by Real Madrid: the Fourteenth (Paris, 2022) and the Fifteenth (London, 2024). Vinicius Jr. has become one of the most important players in one of the most successful periods in our history."
