Vinicius Jr. contract negotiations stall over image rights with Real Madrid

Summary

Negotiations for Vinicius Jr.'s contract renewal with Real Madrid are currently stalled, following meetings that started after the 2025 Club World Cup. Vinicius, seeking a salary increase to approximately €20 million net per season, faces issues regarding image rights, which have delayed agreements. His current deal, running until 2027 and originally worth €75 million over five seasons, allows him to negotiate with other clubs starting in January if no agreement is reached. A critical meeting is expected between Vinicius and Real Madrid’s leadership as discussions are set to resume.
