Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid)
October 2025
Reports indicate Madrid could sanction a sale near 250 million euros amid Saudi interest, with Al Ahli linked. Despite five goals and four assists in ten matches, Kylian Mbappe’s arrival has shifted the hierarchy, opening a pathway to a record transfer if bids materialise.
Contract runs to 2027, so a refusal to extend would force decisions. Madrid can reallocate a windfall into other areas while retaining elite attackers. Saudi leadership keeps signaling confidence in landing prime-age stars, positioning Vinicius as a headline target for next summer.
