Vinicius Junior Identifies Potential Destination Beyond Real Madrid

Vinicius Jr. Hints at Eventual Return to Boyhood Club Flamengo

Real Madrid is reportedly close to announcing a contract extension for Vinicius Jr., with the Brazilian winger having established himself as one of the club’s key players in recent years. Vinicius is widely regarded as the face of the team and has made significant strides in his development.

Much credit for Vinicius’s growth is attributed to Carlo Ancelotti and his coaching staff, as they’ve transformed the once-inconsistent wonderkid into one of the world’s top players.

While Vinicius’s future at Real Madrid appears bright, he has expressed his desire to honor a promise to his father and potentially return to his boyhood club, Flamengo, in the future.

In an interview with France Football and L’Equipe, Vinicius stated, “I think I could stay here my whole career, but the club of my life is Flamengo. I promised my father I would go back one day. I have to keep this promise.”

Vinicius’s football journey began in the youth ranks of Flamengo, and he made nearly 50 senior appearances for the Brazilian club before making his move to Real Madrid. Despite facing challenges and skepticism early in his Real Madrid career, he has grown into one of the world’s finest players. While a return to the Brazilian league may not be imminent, his comments suggest that he could conclude his career at Flamengo, the club where it all started for him.
