Real Madrid are increasingly concerned by Vinicius Junior’s performances this season, with the Brazil striker having scored only once in his opening eight matches since signing a new contract.
According to The Touchline, the 26-year-old’s form has declined significantly after agreeing fresh terms with the Spanish club. His limited goal return has prompted concern within Real Madrid at the start of the campaign.
Head coach Jose Mourinho has made clear that no player is guaranteed a place in his starting XI. As a result, Vinicius Junior could soon find himself on the bench if his performances do not improve.
Real Madrid are fourth in La Liga after seven rounds, having collected 15 points.
