The Saudi League is preparing a groundbreaking financial offer to sign Brazilian star Vinicius Junior from Real Madrid during the upcoming summer transfer window. With Vinicius under contract at Real Madrid until 2027, this ambitious move could see him making a dramatic shift to the Middle East, potentially joining Al-Hilal.
Saudi League’s Record-Breaking Offer
Reports from Spanish program El Chiringuito suggest that Saudi Arabian clubs are eager to secure Vinicius Junior’s services, with a massive financial package in the works. The new offer could see Vinicius earning a staggering 300 million euros annually, while Real Madrid would receive a hefty 400 million euros to release the Brazilian winger before his contract expires.
This ambitious offer is part of a broader push by Saudi clubs to bring top-tier international talent to the league, continuing their heavy investments in football.
Potential Destination: Al-Hilal
While Vinicius Junior was linked to a move to Al-Ahly Jeddah last summer, the latest reports indicate that the Brazilian forward’s likely destination in the Saudi Pro League would be Al-Hilal. The club is one of the most successful in Saudi football and would provide a high-profile platform for Vinicius in the Middle East.
Tensions at Real Madrid
An interesting development has also emerged from El Chiringuito, with sources suggesting that there’s an internal discussion within Real Madrid about how the team performs without Vinicius Junior. Allegedly, some believe the team plays better without him, citing Kylian Mbappe’s strongest performances when Vinicius was not on the pitch.
This growing talk could pave the way for the Brazilian’s exit, with Real Madrid possibly open to negotiations in light of their increasing star power with Mbappe’s arrival.
A Temporary Move?
There’s also speculation around a potential short-term move for Vinicius to Saudi Arabia, lasting two or three years. In this scenario, he would join the league to help promote the World Cup, returning to Europe afterwards. This “paid vacation” could see Vinicius earn 15 to 20 times his current salary, an offer hard to resist.
A move to Al-Hilal?
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on whether Vinicius Junior makes the bold decision to move to the Saudi League, where a massive financial package and a prestigious club like Al-Hilal await. This potential move could change the landscape of the football world, adding a new chapter to the Brazilian’s illustrious career.
