Manchester United are in the race for Real Madrid star thought to be a future Ballon d’Or winner
Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, and Real Madrid are all in the running to sign Real Madrid star, Vinicius Junior, as reported by Spanish publication Fichajes.
The Los Blancos have long been looking to sign PSG star, Kylian Mbappe. Many believe that the Frenchman will be playing in Spain at the turn of the season. However, signing Mbappe has its own problems.
Before Real Madrid can think about making such an expensive signing, they will have to sell an expensive player themselves. One Vinicius Junior comes to mind when people think about how The Los Blancos plan on funding their bid for the Frenchman.
Carlo Ancelotti believes that the 23-year-old superstar will definitely win the Ballon d’Or in the future, as reported by ESPN. Vini Jr. was on the shortlist for the award back in 2023 so Ancelotti’s claims aren’t baseless.
However, he still has a long jump to make in quality and production before he wins the coveted award. Through 15 games this season, the Brazilian forward has recorded six goals and four assists for the team.
Manchester United would do well to acquire the player if Real Madrid decides to move on from him. Vinicius Junior will go a long way towards bolstering the Red Devils’ attacking line which is in desperate need of help.
