Take a bow, son.

Expectation will naturally fall on the shoulders of Vinicius Jr. after he completed a big money move to Real Madrid this summer.

But despite thousands watching his first steps as a Los Blancos player, he flourished in his opening presentation at the Bernabeu.

In the past, the likes of Paulinho and Theo Hernandez have struggled under the pressures of entertaining in front of big crowds but the 18-year-old Brazillian casually performed kick ups with his knees, among other impressive skills, including balancing the ball on his chest.

Just listen to the roar of the Real Madrid crowd in the opening 30 seconds. Brilliant.

In May last year, Real Madrid decided to fork out a massive €45 million euros for the Brazilian wonderkid, who has been touted the next big star in his country.

Junior, who was loaned back to Flamengo to continue his development, may actually join a club nearby to gain experience, with Getafe, Leganes or Rayo Vallecano the most likely destinations.

All we know is, the youngster looks outstanding in training, showing his incredible burst of pace in this clip:

It had previously emerged in the Brazilian media that the 17-year-old would earn close to 7.5 million euros annually at Los Blancos.

That means he would earn more than Real Madrid trio Marco Asensio, Casemiro and Dani Carvajal, as well as some other players in the squad.

The fact that a 18-year-old, who has yet to be capped by the club, would earn such a vast amount may unsettle players in the coming months but if he makes an impact, it could be worth the squeeze, as such.

Thoughts on his move to Real Madrid? Is any 18-year-old worth such a vast amount of money?

Let us know in the comments.
