Vinicius Jr lined up for world record-shattering £296m Saudi transfer following controversial Ballon d’Or snub VINICIUS JR is reportedly being lined up for a world-record £296million move to Saudi Arabia after his Ballon d’Or snub.
Real have no intention of selling Vinicius Jr, even though his exit would allow struggling Kylian Mbappe to play off his favoured left-hand side.
Vinicius Jr joined Real in 2018 from Flamengo for £40million, a year after penning a contract with the Spanish giants.
It prompted an outcry from Vinicius Jr’s club Real, who snubbed the ceremony.
It’s reckoned Saudi pay masters are ready to spend £296m on Vinicius Jr this summer, with Al-Ahli the most likely destination.
