Sel Radio reported that Vinicius' contract renewal negotiations were postponed to the end of the season.

This Wednesday, Vinicius appeared at Real Madrid Sports City accompanied by an agent. Before Real Madrid's third round of La Liga match against Mallorca, the appearance of the Brazilian star sparked a lot of speculation. The core question is obvious, is this related to the player's contract renewal? The current common intention of the players and the club is to focus on the 2025-26 season. In principle, negotiations will not be held for the time being, and negotiations will not be restarted after the end of the current season. The original agreement was to extend the contract to 2030, and all terms have been finalized, and Real Madrid officials have also clearly confirmed it. The most important changes include the increase in Vinicius' salary to about 25 million euros in net annual salary. The two sides originally planned to complete the signing before the Club World Cup, but failed to implement it as scheduled, and did not catch up with Real Madrid's first official game in the 2025-26 season.

Therefore, the negotiations have not broken down, but the new season has begun, and the two sides decided to postpone the negotiations until the end of the season. At this stage, everyone’s goal is to focus on the competition and wait and see what’s going on. It is worth noting that Vinicius' contract will enter its final year next summer, which is similar to what Mbappe did in Paris before joining Real Madrid. Whether on and off the court, this season will be full of highlights. At this moment, the players and the club chose to give more time, postponing negotiations for several months, almost until the end of the season.

Vinicius needs to compete with Rodrigo for the starting position on the left. Rodrigo communicated with Xavi Alonso during the Club World Cup and demanded a return to the most familiar left. He accepted a start-up with Vinicius. When Real Madrid faced Real Oviedo in the second round of La Liga, Rodrigo had already entered the starting eleven players. When Vinicius appeared from the bench, he contributed one goal and one assist.
