What's up, folks? If there was a drama-filled saga this summer, it was Vinícius's renewal. Over a year of negotiations, Saudi offers, Premier League rumours… and in the end, he signs until 2032. And how much does Vinícius earn now? Madrid won't say, so I'll tell you what we know and what we don't.
📜 The renewal soap opera
His contract was set to expire in June 2027 and negotiations had stalled for months. In 2025, according to ESPN, the club and his team came close to agreeing on 20 million per year plus 10 in variables, but it fell apart. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia was talking about a mind-boggling offer, and Arsenal were being linked in England. In the end, after returning from the World Cup, his agents met with the club's board and the deal was sealed. With Mourinho fresh in the dugout and keen on keeping him as a cornerstone.
