Vinícius Júnior Transfer from Real Madrid to Manchester City

90min reports on Manchester City's ambitious plans to sign Vinicius Junior for a record fee. Manchester City are preparing to offer a record-shattering €150 million (£129.6 million, $175.2 million) for Vinicius Junior in the summer of 2026 to complete a “dream attack.”

Potential swap deal for the summer of 2026 involving Vinicius Junior and Erling Haaland. Vinicius Junior's contract negotiations have stalled, and his form has dipped, making him more replaceable. Pep Guardiola is reportedly interested in Vinicius for his dribbling skills.

Vinicius Junior is considering a move to Manchester City due to difficult contract extension negotiations with Real Madrid. He is also concerned about Manchester City's Financial Fair Play charges.

Real Madrid is encountering challenges in renewing Vinicius Junior's contract, which is valid until 2027. Although two attempts to extend his contract have been turned down, Manchester City has approached his representatives, with Pep Guardiola expressing interest in transferring him to Etihad. Vinicius is reportedly open to a move to the Premier League, however, he has reservations due to the ongoing investigation into Manchester City's financial irregularities. Real Madrid is prepared to transfer him for 150 million euros, but Vinicius is requesting an annual salary of 30 million euros, comparable to that of Kylian Mbappé, in addition to a substantial signing bonus. Currently, Real Madrid is not ready to fulfill these demands, which could potentially hasten his departure.

Vinicius Junior is in secret talks with Manchester City. He is considering a move away from Real Madrid due to difficult contract extension negotiations. However, he has concerns about the Financial Fair Play complaints against Manchester City and wants clarity before any potential move. Other English top clubs are also reportedly following his situation.

Pascal Dupraz mentioned that Vinicius Jr. might leave Real Madrid in the future, with Manchester City being a potential destination due to their financial capabilities.

Manchester City is waiting for an opportunity to make a move for Vinicius Junior before the transfer window closes on August 30.
