CHELSEA complete the signing of £100m winger who netted 20 goals last season, personal terms reached Today as announcement will be done tomorrow morning
The relationship between Real Madrid and Vinicius Jr appears increasingly strained at present. From an outside perspective, all signs point to growing tensions. The Brazilian has endured a prolonged period of poor form spanning several months. Even following Xabi Alonso’s departure, speculation about the winger’s future at the Santiago Bernabeu refuses to subside. Could Chelsea genuinely emerge as his next destination?
Vinicius’ current Real Madrid contract runs until summer 2027. However, multiple Spanish media outlets report that extension talks have reached a standstill, casting further doubt over his long-term commitment to Los Blancos.
His recent performances have only intensified these concerns. He’s become virtually unrecognizable from the player once considered the frontrunner for the Ballon d’Or.
According to Football365, Spanish reports now claim Vinicius has ‘already finalized’ an agreement to join Chelsea next summer in a €150 million transfer. The report elaborates:
“The Brazilian international ‘has already secured terms to become their marquee signing next summer,’ with Chelsea ‘willing to table a historic €150 million bid to convince Real Madrid and complete one of football’s most expensive transfers ever’.”
It’s certainly understandable why Real Madrid might entertain such a lucrative offer for a struggling player with only twelve months remaining on his contract. The real question is whether Chelsea would seriously consider making this move.
Since the ownership change, Chelsea has operated with a clear philosophy of investing in young prospects, often at the expense of acquiring proven, experienced talent. A move for Vinicius would represent a complete departure from this established approach.
More importantly, what would actually attract Vinicius to Chelsea right now? Should the Brazilian opt to leave Real Madrid, he’d have his pick of Europe’s elite clubs. Chelsea, meanwhile, has barely managed to qualify for the Champions League in recent campaigns, making them a puzzling choice for a player of his caliber.
