Forced to align him?
Strangeness, but above all discomfort, is what has caused in Flamengo the information given by the Catalan newspaper Sport, which claimed that Real Madrid forces the Brazilian team to align Vinicius Junior.
And they said he was only a juggler: luxury hat, self-pass with huacha and assist by Vinicius Junior
Flamengo came forward to categorically deny this information, stating that "there is no contractual clause that requires Vinicius Jr to start", emphasizing that "this is the decision of coach Ze Ricardo".
In addition, the information in Sport indicates that Madrid would be the 'culprit' of Vinicius Jr's absence in the Copa de Brasil Sub 20 and speaks of a bad atmosphere in the dressing room. "Divergent voices begin to appear due to his forced alignment," they say.
In the face of this, the players themselves have taken charge of denying it. Diego Ribas, one of the team's references, said that he feels "very happy to see a player like him in Brazilian football". "He is going to help us a lot, in fact he has already helped us," he added.
While Paolo Guerrero said that "having continuity is a big responsibility and sometimes it hinders the preparation for him to continue growing".
