Renowned transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has debunked recent claims suggesting Real Madrid’s superstar Vinicius Jr could be on the radar of Manchester United, Chelsea, or other major European clubs. Despite his phenomenal performances and a second-place finish in the 2024 Ballon d’Or race, Romano firmly stated that such rumors are “far from reality” at this time.
While Vinicius Jr is regarded as one of the finest talents in world football, Romano confirmed there are no active discussions between the Brazilian and top European teams such as Manchester United, Chelsea, or PSG.

“In the past few days, I’ve been asked numerous times whether Vinicius is heading to Saudi Arabia, Chelsea, or Manchester United. While it’s natural for clubs to admire a player of his caliber, there is absolutely no substance to these rumors. As of now, there are no talks between Vinicius and any European club, including Chelsea, PSG, or Manchester United.”

Additionally, Saudi clubs previously expressed willingness to offer €1 billion (£838.5m) over five years for the winger, but Romano revealed that Real Madrid has yet to receive any formal proposals.
