Contract Clash: Vinicius Jr. Demands Exceed Mbappe’s, Putting Real Madrid Future in Doubt

Talks on a new deal have stalled and been postponed until 2025 after the Brazilian forward’s camp asked for a salary that would surpass the club’s newest superstar.

A major standoff between Real Madrid and Vinicius Junior is threatening the future of the Brazilian star at the club, with a once-imminent contract renewal now completely deadlocked.

The two parties were expected to sign a new deal this summer, but those plans have collapsed. The rupture stems from a significant change in demands from Vinicius’s camp, who are now asking for a salary that would exceed that of the team’s highest earner, Kylian Mbappe.

According to reports from El Chiringuito, the club’s stance is immovable: they will not meet these demands under any circumstances. The report states Real Madrid are prepared to let the 25-year-old leave on a free transfer when his contract expires in 2026 rather than shatter their wage structure.

With the new season underway, both sides have reportedly agreed to an uneasy truce, deciding to postpone all further negotiations until the end of the year to focus on performances on the pitch. This pause, however, carries significant risk for the Spanish giants.

Vinicius now has just two years remaining on his current deal. If talks remain stalled until next summer, he will enter the final year of his contract, giving him immense leverage and opening the door to a potential free transfer—a scenario the club is notoriously averse to but seemingly prepared to face in order to maintain financial discipline. For now, the future of one of Madrid’s brightest stars hangs in the balance.
