Saudi Arabian dealmakers are reportedly working tirelessly to secure the signing of Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr in 2025, despite the player’s clear intention to stay at the Bernabéu.

According to Diario AS, Saudi representatives have made their stance clear: “We will sign Vinicius no matter what it takes financially.”

The Brazilian winger recently reaffirmed his commitment to Real Madrid, stating after the club’s Champions League clash with Manchester City that he hopes to remain in the Spanish capital for many years.

However, negotiations over a new contract could become a decisive factor in his future. Reports suggest that Vinicius is demanding a new deal worth €18 million net per season— a figure that would make him the highest-paid player at the club, even ahead of Kylian Mbappé.

Saudi clubs, on the other hand, are prepared to offer astronomical wages to lure him away. If Vinicius were to accept a move to the Middle East, he could reportedly earn upwards of €200 million per season— an amount that surpasses the total prize money awarded to the Champions League winners.

Despite the staggering financial power of Saudi clubs, Real Madrid remain determined to keep one of their biggest stars. The coming months could be pivotal in shaping Vinicius Jr’s long-term future.
