Saudi Pro League CEO Omar Mugharbel thinks it's only a matter of time before Vinicius Junior secures his transfer away from Real Madrid.
Vinicius Junior is one of the best players in the world. In the year of 2024, he definitely should have won the Ballon d'Or award but unfortunately, the awards ceremony was robbed and stripped of its legitimacy when it was handed to Rodri instead.
Naturally, since the robbery, Vini Jr has appeared deflated. What is the point of him competing if his deserved rewards will always be taken away from him and handed to someone else?
Regardless, the Brazilian superstar is still a figure of interest to the fastest developing league in the world, the Saudi Pro League.
Saudi Pro League CEO makes incredibly bold Vinicius Junior transfer claim
According to a report from Marca, Saudi Pro League CEO Omar Mugharbel has made an incredibly bold claim about Vinicius Junior. The chief believes it's only a matter of time before Vini makes the switch from Real Madrid to a club in Saudi Arabia.
In his own words, Mugharbel said: "Vinicius? We don't have dreams, it's a matter of time and negotiation."
Truly, that is spoken like a man with confidence. The CEO not only wants Vini to make the switch to the Saudi Pro League but he already envisions it happening - Now, it is simply a case time.
The Saudi Pro League has been sniffing around Vinicius Junior for some time now. There were whispers in the summer and this continues to be the case. There is a growing feeling that until Vini is playing in the Saudi Pro League, those rumours will not die down.
Ultimately, it is the dream of Real Madrid to make Vinicius Junior a club legend. Make no mistake about it, while other clubs might desire his signature, Real Madrid's confidence is not knocked. They know the merit of playing for the best club in the world, the Champions League champions.
