Vinícius already has a new team: 160M and goodbye Real Madrid
The atmosphere at the Bernabéu and the movements in the market place the Brazilian at a possible turning point
The last match at Santiago Bernabéu left an unusual image. Real Madrid's fans showed their frustration with a loud round of booing that reached practically all the players. The atmosphere was tense, full of disappointment, and it reflected discontent that had built up because of the results and the team's irregular performances.
Among the most singled out was Vinícius Júnior. The Brazilian, who is used to being one of the great idols at Bernabéu, felt the blow in a special way. For such an emotional footballer, the connection with the stands is key, and that night he sensed that something had changed.
A relationship that cools down
Vinícius has always argued that he needs to feel loved in order to perform at his best. For years, the support from the crowd was an engine that allowed him to grow, overcome criticism, and become a global star. However, the booing marked a turning point in his perception of the environment.

At the club they are aware that the Brazilian's situation is no longer the same, his role is still important, but the sense that he is untouchable has been fading. In addition, his contract renewal is still not finalized, which fuels rumors and opens the door to scenarios that until recently seemed unthinkable. The player himself is beginning to accept that his time in Madrid could be approaching its end.
Chelsea enter with strength
In this context Chelsea appear. The English club has been closely following Vinícius for some time and has decided to take a step forward with an offer that is difficult to ignore. From London people speak of a proposal close to €160 million, a figure that would shake the market.
Beyond the money, the sporting project appeals to the footballer. Chelsea offer him absolute prominence, a new environment, and the possibility of becoming the cornerstone of an ambitious project. At Stamford Bridge they have everything ready to receive him and build the team around his presence, something that Vinícius is seriously considering.
Madrid accept the risk of losing him
At Real Madrid they know that the possibility of losing one of their great stars is real. The lack of a contract renewal and Chelsea's growing interest place the club before a complex decision. Accepting a historic fee would allow for a deep rebuilding, but it would also mean saying goodbye to a decisive player.
For now, there is no official announcement, but the signs are clear. Vinícius feels that his situation has changed and Madrid perceive that keeping him is no longer so simple. If it happens, it won't just be a multi-million transfer, but the end of a chapter that gradually wore out.
