Could the Manchester City star replace Vinicius Junior if he decides to leave Real Madrid?
Real Madrid is actively monitoring potential talent while facing internal challenges with one of their key players, Vinicius Junior.
According to reports, scouts have been observing Manchester City winger Savinho, signalling and interest in the Brazilian star, who starred in LaLiga before moving to England.
Real Madrid register interest in Manchester City star
Former Girona forward Savinho, who lit up La Liga during his stellar 2023-24 season with Girona, has emerged as a target for Real Madrid.
The young Brazilian’s performances earned him a move to Manchester City, where he has begun to find his stride after a slow start.
His potential has not gone unnoticed, with both Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly scouting him as a future addition.
While Savinho’s talent is clear, Real Madrid’s current attacking depth makes an immediate move improbable, however, reports suggest the Spanish giants could revisit the idea in 2025 as part of their long-term strategy.
Frustrations mount for Vinicius Junior
Amid scouting efforts, Real Madrid may also face growing issues with Vinicius Junior, one of their marquee players.
Tensions surfaced during the Spanish Super Cup final when Carlo Ancelotti substituted Vinicius in the 76th minute, despite the team chasing the game against Barcelona.
The decision reportedly upset Vinicius and his entourage, marking a rare public show of discontent.
This incident comes despite previously strong relations between Vinicius and the club, including Real Madrid’s support during his Ballon d’Or snub.
With interest in the Brazilian star from Saudi Arabia increasing, Los Blancos must carefully manage the situation to avoid potential fallout.
