In a pre-arranged arrangement, Vinicius will join “Los Blancos” on July 12 when he reaches 18 years old. In an exclusive interview with the “Guardian,” he discussed the possibility of playing for one of the top teams in the world.

“I am aware that I am still insignificant and have made no progress. But my goal is to improve as a football player and win a World Cup. I want to accomplish my objectives and please my family, he told the English tabloid.

The young Brazilian star admires Neymar, who he would love to see playing beside at the Bernabeu. 

“Neymar and I will play together at Real Madrid if God so chooses. It would be my greatest dream to play on the same team as Neymar, thus I would unquestionably be in favor of his heading to Madrid. He is my football hero. I would be quite thrilled if I could play with him.

Another is Cristiano Ronaldo, who was praised highly by Vinicius and who stated, “[He] is my motivation. He has been playing at such a high level for the past ten years, and I admire what he has accomplished. Hard work is equally as important as talent and quality. One day, I want to be able to tell him that.
