How Vinicius Junior Betrayed Barcelona to Sign for Real Madrid : El clásico is not only played on the pitch but also in the transfer market as Real Madrid and FC Barcelona have over the years competed to sign special talents.
Long announced at FC Barcelona, Arda Güler chose Real Madrid to take his first steps at the highest level of football.
Before him, Alfredo Di Stefano or Johan Cruyff were also courted by the two Spanish giants before making their choice. Like the Dutchman, Vinicius, was very close to signing at Barça, before changing his mind to go to Real.
Some time after his arrival, the Brazilian said he had only had two days to definitively decide where he would settle down in Europe.
However, the withdrawal did not please the Barcelona leaders, including André Curry, former adviser to the Catalan club who has become an agent.
“Vinicius had planned everything, and Madrid discovered that he was in Barcelona and the club invited him to go to Madrid, but they did not even know him. Vinicius went to Madrid because his agents chose him. We have been working on this signature for three years, and his agents betrayed us, “he told Cadena Ser.
To support his words and prove that the winger is much more attached to the FCB, he says that the player cried during the “Remontanda” against Paris Saint-Germain in the 2016/17 season where Barca came back from 4-0 down in the first leg to win 6-1 in the reverse match to advance.
