Vinicius Jr to Manchester United or Chelsea? Fabrizio Romano Shuts Down Speculation
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has dismissed recent rumors suggesting that Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr could be on the move to Manchester United, Chelsea, or any other major European club. Despite Vinicius’s incredible performances and his runner-up finish in the 2024 Ballon d’Or, Romano declared such links as “completely unrealistic” at this stage.
The Current Situation
Vinicius Jr, considered one of the top players in world football, has reportedly garnered interest from Saudi Pro League teams willing to make audacious bids. However, Romano clarified there is no activity involving clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, or PSG.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano said:
“I’ve received many messages about Vinicius being linked to Saudi Arabia, Chelsea, or Manchester United. Of course, it’s normal for clubs to admire him; he’s an exceptional player. But right now, any talk of Chelsea, PSG, or Manchester United is completely unrealistic. There are no negotiations or discussions happening with any European team.”
Saudi Pro League’s Bold Moves
Although European transfers are off the table for now, the Saudi Pro League remains a serious contender for Vinicius Jr. Reports suggest Al-Hilal is preparing a staggering €300 million (£252m/$327m) bid for the Real Madrid winger, potentially eclipsing Neymar’s 2017 record-breaking transfer to PSG.
In the past, Saudi clubs have reportedly proposed a €1 billion (£838.5m) deal over five years to lure Vinicius, but Romano confirmed that Real Madrid has yet to receive any formal offers.
Real Madrid’s Transfer Focus
While Vinicius is staying put, Real Madrid’s transfer activity continues to make headlines. Some of the latest developments include:
•Trent Alexander-Arnold: The Liverpool defender is rumored to be eyeing a move to Real Madrid.
•Erling Haaland: Real’s pursuit of the Manchester City striker remains active, with speculation that City could target Rodrygo as a potential replacement.
•Aurelien Tchouameni: There’s talk of including him in a swap deal for Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez.
•Endrick: The young Brazilian star may be loaned out in January, with Tottenham and Juventus reportedly interested.
What’s Next for Vinicius?
While Vinicius is not in discussions with European giants, the Saudi Pro League’s determination to break records adds intrigue to his future. For now, Real Madrid will be keen to hold onto their superstar as they navigate an increasingly active and high-stakes transfer market.
