Vinicius Jr., the super-talented left wing of Real Madrid and one of the main players of the current European champions, rejected the offer from PSG.
Vinicius could have gone for an annual salary of as much as 40 million euros, reports the Spanish sports newspaper “Marca”.
The Spanish paper claims that the leaders of the French champions “recruited” the young Vinicius to leave the Madrid club.
It is stated that this information further complicated the relations between the two clubs, since Real and PSG were already “waging war” over Killian Mbape, who eventually stayed in Paris.
“Marca” states that PSG, from November 2021 until March 2022, put pressure on the Brazilian football player and asked Vinicius not to extend the contract with the “royal club”, which is in force until 2024.
PSG allegedly promised the Brazilian an annual salary of as much as 40 million euros, a huge bonus not only for signing the contract, but also help with starting a business in Qatar, as well as various other privileges he would have at the French club.
Vinicius is currently earning about 3.5 million euros a year at Real. He is currently negotiating with the leaders of the Madrid club regarding the extension of the contract, according to which he would earn around 10 million euros per season.
Vinicius, 21 years old, has been a member of Real Madrid since 2018. He was the only scorer in Real’s victory over Liverpool in this year’s Champions League final (1: 0).
