The 2024 Ballon d'Or nominee will have his own Netflix documentary next year.

Netflix have confirmed plans to release an exclusive documentary about Vinicius Junior in 2025.  

Fans can now get ready to see the highs, lows, and untold stories of Real Madrid’s no.7.

The streaming giant promises an intimate glimpse into Vini Jr.’s meteoric rise from the streets of São Gonçalo, Brazil, to the Santiago Bernabéu. 

Touted as one of football’s most electrifying talents, the 24-year-old winger has been instrumental in Real Madrid’s recent La Liga and Champions League triumphs.

For now, details of the documentary’s release date remain under wraps, but speculation is rife about whether it will address the drama surrounding the 2024 Ballon d’Or. 

Vinícius, widely regarded as a favourite for this year's award, lost out to Manchester City’s Rodri—a decision that saw both the player and Real Madrid dramatically boycott the ceremony in Paris to spark widespread controversy.

This contentious moment could add a layer of intrigue to the documentary, showcasing his resilience and determination to prove his worth on the world stage.  

The announcement comes as Netflix continues to expand its sports docuseries portfolio, with Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, and Karim Benzema set to star in an upcoming Netflix documentary about life in the Saudi Pro League.
