Vinicius Jr. is set to sign a lucrative new contract with Real Madrid, securing his future at the club until 2030. This deal will place the Brazilian forward among the highest-paid footballers in the world. According to AS, Vinicius’s new agreement will see him earn close to €100 million net over the next five years, putting him on par with Real Madrid’s latest star, Kylian Mbappe.
As reported, the contract includes an annual salary of around €20 million net, making Vinicius the highest-paid player at Real Madrid. The deal is set to be finalized once the current La Liga season concludes, but everything has already been agreed upon. The signature is expected before the Club World Cup begins.
Vinicius’s new deal is more than just a salary increase; it comes with significant incentives tied to both personal and team achievements. Bonuses are available for winning trophies, scoring goals, and achieving individual milestones, such as winning prestigious awards like the Ballon d’Or or The Best. This season alone, Vinicius earned an extra €2 million after claiming The Best award.
The Brazilian’s commitment to the club is evident, as he rejected a staggering €1 billion offer from a Saudi Arabian club. Real Madrid, for its part, views Vinicius as a key player for the future and an essential part of their new generation alongside Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham.
A key element of this deal is that Vinicius’s agent, Frederico Pena, prefers shorter contracts that allow his clients more control over their careers. As a result, rather than extending Vinicius’s contract for a decade, the renewal adds just three more years to his current agreement.
The contract renewal shows Real Madrid’s intention to build their future around Vinicius Jr., with him being integral to the club’s plans moving forward.
Vinicius is seen as essential, a star who defines this new generation alongside Mbappe and Jude Bellingham.
