Vinicius Jr has already named the one club he would leave Real Madrid for amid reports of potential £1.35 billion transfer

Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr has revealed the one club he would 'leave' Real Madrid for.

Vini Jr, 24, is widely considered to be one of the best players in world football and recently came second – behind Manchester City’s Rodri – in the 2024 Ballon d’Or list.

Despite clearly being disappointed at missing out on the crown, he has continued to showcase his talent for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, registering 16 goals and ten assists in 26 appearances for Real Madrid this term.

Last season, he played an integral part in Madrid’s La Liga and Champions League double-winning campaign, scoring in the 2-0 win against Dortmund in the final at Wembley in June.

And despite being one of Los Blancos’ star men, the Brazilian is reportedly attracting interest from the Saudi Pro League.

According to AS, the Public Investment Fund (PIF) backed clubs could be prepared to offer a world record €1.3 billion package to sign the 24-year-old. The Saudi league tried to tempt the player to join the division last summer, but Madrid pointed to a €1 billion release clause.

Vini Jr is contracted to Madrid until the summer of 2027 and will no doubt further cement his impressive legacy in the Spanish capital if he stays injury-free in seasons to come.

But he has previously explained the one club he could leave Madrid for at some point.

"I think I could stay here my whole career, but the club of my life is Flamengo,” he told L’Équipe in 2023.

"I love life here in general, and it's going well for my family too. When my loved ones walk around, they are recognised and they wish us nothing but happiness.

"Little by little, I discovered this new life, new emotions, a fervour... Madrid is unique. Everyone around the world tells me about this club.

"And apart from that, I like it. I'm quite a homebody, but we do a lot of activities."

The winger came through the ranks at Flamengo and made 69 appearances for the club before moving to Madrid in 2018.

Vini Jr's fellow Brazilian, Neymar, looks set to return to his boyhood club Santos after his contract at Al-Hilal was terminated by the club.
