Vinicius wants Madrid stay

Vinicius Jr reiterated his desire to remain at the club as the Brazilian winger nears the final year of his contract.

The 25-year-old has endured a mixed campaign, going 16 matches without a goal early in the season and hearing boos from sections of the Bernabeu crowd.

Vinicius has since rediscovered his form, scoring 17 goals and providing 13 assists in 44 appearances across all competitions this season.

Since arriving at Real in 2018, Vinicius has lifted two Champions League trophies and won La Liga three times, along with several other major honors.

"I hope I can stay for many years to come," Vinicius said. "We know what we all want, and when the time is right, we'll renew the contract. I'm happy here."
