Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr. has said he isn’t worried about money or a new contract and is committed to staying with Los Blancos. The Brazilian is presently making one of the lowest salaries in Real Madrid’s first team despite this season’s rise to one of Europe’s top performers.
Vinicius Jr.’s formative years at Real Madrid

Vinicius Jr. paid €46 million to go from Flamengo to Real Madrid in 2018. He has shown flashes of brilliance while playing for the Spanish giants, but he has battled to stay consistent. The Brazilian, though, has nine goals and five assists in 14 games for Real Madrid this season in all competitions.
Even though Vinicius Jr. is one of Real Madrid’s lower-paid players, his current deal, which has four years left on it, should be extended. The 21-year-old has made it clear that money is unimportant to him and that he intends to stay at Real Madrid.
I don’t care how long my next contract is or how much they’ll pay me; I’m quite relaxed, and I want to stay. The pride of belonging to the best club in the world is all that counts to me, Vinicius Jr. told TNTSportsBR.
They haven’t informed me anything from the club, but I am at ease because there is still plenty of time. Of course, I want to stay and refresh here for a while, but I’m at ease because everything will happen when it needs to.
The current Real Madrid pecking order has Vincius Jr. ahead of Rodrygo, Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale, Marco Asensio, and Hazard. He has established himself as a crucial cog in Carlo Ancelotti’s starting lineup this year.
Real Madrid has moved up to the second position in La Liga thanks to goals from the Brazilian. Ancelotti’s team is currently one point behind league leaders Real Sociedad with a game remaining.
This season, Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr. has swiftly made a name for himself as one of the most promising young players in Europe. The Brazilian has recently grown more eager to score goals and produce an outcome.
Vinicius Jr. has attention from English clubs
The two biggest clubs in the Premier League, Chelsea, and Liverpool are both anxious to add forwards and will probably try to persuade Vinicius Jr. to join them. He is one of the team’s lowest earners, and Real Madrid has yet to extend his contract.
Liverpool may try to sign Vinicius Jr. the following summer after failing to add a new forward this year. The performances of Kai Havertz and Hakim Ziyech have reportedly left Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel unimpressed, and he may want to bring in a new offensive midfielder in the summer of 2019.
