Agents have been circling Real Madrid’s 25‑year‑old winger Vinícius Junior as he heads into the final year of his contract. Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Paris Saint‑Germain and Bayern Munich have all been contacted, while the Saudi Pro League remains a fallback option. Negotiations stalled months ago and are unlikely to restart until after the 2026 World Cup, despite the Brazilian insisting he wants to stay.

Real Madrid meanwhile grow confident about securing Manchester City midfielder Rodri this summer. The 29‑year‑old has opened talks with City on exit terms, and Madrid reportedly consider a €60 million fee sufficient, refusing to overpay for the Spain international. A move to the Bernabéu would satisfy both clubs, but the Spanish side insists on a realistic price tag.

Paris Saint‑Germain have also placed Camavinga on their radar, hoping a Ligue 1 switch could revive the 23‑year‑old’s stalled minutes at Real. Madrid would aim to recoup at least part of the €40 million they spent in 2021, adding pressure to offload the midfielder. With Vinícius’ future unresolved, the Spanish giants must act now to avoid losing two key assets for less than market value.
