Sign new deal or be sold: Real Madrid's ultimatum to Vinicius

Real Madrid have taken a firm stance amid uncertainty over Vinicius Junior's future. According to Spanish media outlet Marca, the club has left two paths open for the Brazilian star — either sign a new contract and stay, or be put up for sale this summer.

Although Vinicius's current contract runs until 2027, negotiations over a new deal have been deadlocked for a long time. Real Madrid have made it clear that there will be no further salary increases or fresh negotiations beyond the current offer. If the proposal is not accepted, the club is prepared to sell him to avoid the risk of losing him for free in the future.

The report also stated that Arsenal's interest has added a new dimension to a potential transfer. Meanwhile, under new coach Jose Mourinho, changes in the squad structure are expected, with plans to bring in players capable of playing on both wings, which could reduce reliance on Vinicius.

Despite the hardline stance, Real Madrid still consider Vinicius an important member of the squad. The club maintains that the established salary structure will not be broken for any player. The Brazilian forward now faces a crucial decision regarding his own future.
