Vinicius Junior Real Madrid exit speculation surged after his angry El Clasico substitution and public clash with coach Xabi Alonso. The Brazilian star shouted “Always me. I will leave the team. It’s better if I go,” while walking down the tunnel after being substituted in Madrid’s 2-1 win over Barcelona, reportedly adding to long-simmering frustrations over his treatment since Alonso’s arrival.
Sources close to Vinicius claim that he feels disrespected by Alonso, having been left out of the starting lineup several times this season, despite ranking among La Liga’s top performers and being a Ballon d’Or runner-up last year. His contract runs until 2027, but extension talks have stalled and Madrid officials now face a dilemma if the rift cannot be healed. Alonso, for his part, praised Vinicius in his post-match interview but confirmed they would speak privately about the incident.
Premier League clubs and Saudi teams are monitoring the situation, but the massive transfer fee (around £150 million) and wage demands may leave Saudi Arabia as the only realistic landing spot, should a move materialize. Madrid, for now, appear to back Alonso’s authority in the locker room, leaving Vinicius’s future at the club in serious doubt unless the relationship improves soon.
