Real Madrid rejects Vinicius Junior’s salary increase request

Vinicius Junior faces obstacles in new contract negotiations with Real Madrid — the club is reluctant to meet his significant salary increase demands.

The Brazilian winger remains under contract until June 2027, but Real Madrid wants to extend the partnership duration soon — this is to avoid the risk of losing the player on a free transfer in the future.

The main obstacle in negotiations arose because Vinicius Junior wants a salary equal to Kylian Mbappe. Real Madrid rejected this request considering the player’s performance decline last season.
