Vinicius Jr signs contract extension with Real Madrid through 2032
Brazilian forward Vinicius Jr. has agreed a new long‑term contract with Real Madrid, keeping him at the Santiago Bernabéu until June 2032. The deal, announced by the club, includes a salary in the region of €25‑30 million per year and a higher share of image rights, making him one of the highest‑paid players in world football. Real Madrid said the extension reflects Vinicius’ importance to the team’s sporting project after he logged 375 appearances, 128 goals and 100 assists, helping the club win three La Liga titles and two Champions League crowns.
The renewal ends months of speculation linking the 26‑year‑old with a move to Premier League side Arsenal, which had been prepared to offer a record‑breaking package. With the contract secured, Real Madrid can focus on other summer signings, while Arsenal shift their transfer targets elsewhere.
