Manchester United plan to sign ‘real’ superstar Vinicius Jr.According to ESPN Brazil, Vinicius Jr. has a €1 billion buyout clause in his contract and recently signed a new five-year deal until 2027.
This is one of the many reasons why talk of a £150m bid for Manchester United is scoffed at in football circles. Real Madrid are believed to be unlikely to offer less than £250m for Vinicius Junior.
According to reports, United have not approached Madrid about such an offer as they are currently not interested in selling him. Vinicius Junior could be on the move this summer as Madrid look to sign PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe, who is out of contract. He will be moving to Spain for a few years and will not be in the same team as Vinicius Junior. If both players want to play on the right flank.
