THE FRUIT OF ENDLESS HOURS OF HARD WORK

If you follow Vinicius Jr closely on social media, you would have seen the hard work the Brazilian put himself under during the season break and pre-season. Vinicius continued training while on vacation and worked extra sessions during the pre-season as well.

His work ethic has improved and it could be a result of sharing the dressing room with players who boast such strong mentalities like Karim Benzema or former Real captain Sergio Ramos. Vinicius has admitted that his improvement is because of a lot of work and training while on an interview with AS’ Tomas Roncero.

"This is the product of a lot of work, many hours training in Valdebebas and fighting to improve the definition."

The 21-year-old has also closely worked with Ancelotti and the technical staff on improving his end product. Data has been collected and used to show how fewer touches would improve his performance in the attack and the results are to show during matchdays.

It’s a brilliant start to the season for Vinicius Jr but consistency is key and it would be interesting to see whether or not he can continue his rampant form for the remainder of the season.

Real Madrid takes on Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday evening at the San Siro. Simone Inzaghi has stated that he’ll be paying close attention to Vinicius Jr during the game and will be taking special care of the Brazilian.
