The Middle Eastern government’s public investment fund is dedicated to Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior.
Vinicius Junior received a financially lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia. As reported by the globe, the Brazilian striker of Real Madrid can receive more than one billion euros in the next 10 years.
This is exactly how much the Public Investment Fund of the government of Saudi Arabia is offering the footballer. Vinicius was offered 5 years to play in the Middle Eastern country as a soccer player, after which he will be an ambassador for the 2034 World Cup for 10 years.
The publication named the following key points of Vinicius Junior’s possible contract in Saudi Arabia:
1 billion euros for 5 years of a football contract;
freedom to choose your next club in 2029;
the role of ambassador for the 2034 World Cup and the Saudi Arabian Championship;
the chance to get a position somewhere after the player’s career.
Big contracts with football stars, especially Neymar (Al-Hilal) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nasr), expire in the summer of 2025, and the Saudis see this as an opportunity to free up funds for the arrival of Vinicius. Potential clubs for the Brazilian are Al-Hilal, Al-Ittihad and Al-Nasr. So far, the football player has not received an official offer, however, the negotiations are far from complete.
Previously, there was information that Vinicius would not leave Europe until he received the Ballon d’Or. He is one of the top favorites for this year’s award, and the Saudis believe it will help them in negotiations.
We remind you that earlier it became known that Cristiano Ronaldo will receive a special award from UEFA.
