Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund is reportedly interested in signing Vinicius Junior from Real Madrid.
The 24-year-old, who was a runner-up in last year’s Ballon d’Or and crowned Best FIFA Men’s Player, was a transfer target for the Saudi Pro League last summer.
Khaled Al Issa, a director at Al Ahli, confirmed interest in Vinicius after pursuing a deal for Brentford striker Ivan Toney.
According to ESPN, the Public Investment Fund re-established contact with Vinicius in December to show him he is a priority for them.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti stated that there are no plans for Vinicius to leave the club and that he remains committed to helping the team.
Vinicius played a key role in Real Madrid’s recent successes and is considered a vital player for the club’s future.
He expressed his desire to stay at Real Madrid during his FIFA Men’s Best Player award speech and is seen as a cornerstone alongside other young talents.
Vinicius has been in top form, winning multiple awards and helping Real Madrid achieve success in various competitions.
The Saudi Pro League is looking to strengthen their squad with top players like Mohamed Salah, who they aim to sign on a free transfer.
