The Brazilian forward's demands come amid interest from Saudi Arabia

Vinícius Júnior has reportedly asked Real Madrid for a salary higher than that of Kylian Mbappé, creating a major stumbling block in contract renewal negotiations. The Brazilian forward's demands come amid interest from Saudi Arabia, where he was offered a staggering €1 billion deal over five years.

According to Cadena Ser, Real Madrid initiated talks with Vinícius after he met with representatives from Saudi Arabia. The 23-year-old is seeking an annual salary of €25 million, significantly more than the €15 million currently earned by Mbappé. However, the Spanish giants are hesitant to meet these demands, while Vinícius is unwilling to consider offers below €20 million.

Beyond financial considerations, Vinícius is also weighing the competitive level of the Saudi Pro League, despite being offered an ambassadorial role for the 2034 FIFA World Cup. The Brazilian star is keen to continue competing at the highest level, but the lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia has undoubtedly complicated negotiations with Real Madrid.

Vinícius has been a key player for Real Madrid since joining the club in 2018, playing a pivotal role in their recent Champions League and La Liga triumphs.
