Portuguese Vitinha (26 years old) and PSG they agreed on the amount in exchange for which he can go to real madrid.
For Real Madrid, Vitinha is a key target in the summer mercato. President Florentino Perez sees him as the most suitable successor to German Toni Kroos, retired in 2024, and the man needed in the midfield to better value Vinicius, Kylian Mbappe and Rodrygo.
But to get it, Perez will have to dig deep into his pocket. According to Spanish radio station Cadena SER, the Portuguese international has reached a verbal agreement with the management of Paris Saint-Germain. This agreement states that he can leave the club “if an interested party pays a transfer fee of at least €100 million“.
There have been tensions between Real Madrid and PSG over Kylian Mbappe
Real Madrid would have already been informed of the amount, but Vitinha himself should officially request a transfer to the Parisian club, with whom he has a contract until 2029. The matter is also a sensitive one due to the tension that existed for years between the Masrilani and PSG, after the departure of Kylian Mbappe to the “Bernabeu” in the summer of 2024.
Real wanted to take him as early as 2022, but failed to reach an agreement with the French on the price. Then, in 2023, Florentino decided it would be more appropriate to wait another year when the striker was out of contract, much to the chagrin of PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and pressured the player to leave when he could still take money or, if not, to extend. Which didn't happen.
Real Madrid will wait with offer as long as PSG are involved in Champions League 2025-2026
Now, according to the same Cadena SER, relations between Perez and Al-Khelaifi have improved significantly. But not so much that Real will come right now with a transfer offer. Madrid have decided to wait as long as PSG are still in the Champions League and only then approach the French.
Vitinha? Cadena SER claims that the player is open to a new challenge. The Portuguese international won everything in PSG's jersey, including the Champions League last summer in the final with Inter (5-0): “For him, the next step, logically, is the move to the Santiago Bernabeu.”
