Vinicius Jr., a must see player!

The Real Madrid striker is one of the club's great figures and will seek to continue being the top reference in the team's attack. Now, after the departure of Karim Benzema, Vini is running to be one of the top references in the forward that Real Madrid needs and his contribution will be very important for the future and the search for titles for the Spanish team. The board of directors has entrusted him with the team's offense and they even awarded him Cristiano Ronaldo's historic number 7 with which he will seek to continue leaving history in the club. In the previous campaign, he registered 23 goals and 21 assists in 55 games.
