Vinicius Jr has been a shining light for Real Madrid this season. Not only he’s got nine goals and five assists, but the manner in which he speaks about the financial side of the game is a breath of fresh air. While most players either sulk in silence trying to get better contracts or let their agents do the dirty work, the classy winger simply says “It will come”.Vinicius Jr scores again for Real Madrid. He’s improving from week to week, from game to game. His contract will be discussed in the next months as Real considered Vinicius “untouchable” last summer ⚪️ #RealMadrid…and it’s still unbelievable that he’s not called up for Brazil. pic.twitter.com/N5hofhaQAV— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) October 30, 2021 Speaking to the Brazilian TNT sports channel, Vini responded to claims that he’ll surely get a new and improved contract soon.”I wasn’t told anything by the club yet, but that’s alright. I’m calm about it because I’ve been a Real Madrid player for a long time. Of course, I’d like to get a new contract because I want to stay there for a long time. The contract I’m on now was signed when I was 16. But it’s not that important when will I renew my deal – there is time.”Real Madrid are aware that Vinicius Jr’s next renewal will be a huge one, although he is currently contracted to the club until 2025 with one of the lowest salaries in the first-team squad.If they really wanted to, they could keep him on a low salary and continue to work on signing Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland, although that would be dangerous business given how much the Brazilian could seen be worth on the market, it is imperative to keep him happy and tied to the club.Wednesday, 20.45: (1.25) Real Madrid (6.75) Shakhtar (13.0)Meanwhile, the Brazilian is focusing on his game.”It doesn’t matter how much money I’m going to earn or what I’m earning currently. What matters is the satisfaction of playing for the best team in the world.”Manager Carlo Ancelotti has seen a fair share of talented players in his career. He decided to give Vini a different role to that he was deployed in by Zinedine Zidane.”He is getting used to playing more centrally. Which takes time to learn since it’s different to have a one-on-one in the area compared to out on the wing.”##EDITORS_CHOICE##Vinicius is currently earning $4 million gross per season, but his salary could potentially skyrocket to $12 million gross per year following the next contract renewal.But, for now, the boy is just happy to be playing.
