Winnicius Junior’s future at Real Madrid has begun to be questioned, with the leaders of the Madrile club reportedly considering the possibility of selling the Brazilian assailant during the upcoming transitional deadlines.
According to Spanish media reports, some members of Real Madrid’s leaders have recommended President Florentino Peres to listen to bids for 26-year-olds, while the initial figure to start negotiations could be around 150m euros.
The situation of Winnicius has changed over the past few weeks, largely because of its poor form and impressive presentations of talent Yan Diomande, who has exploited the Brazilian absence to gain more space in the formation of Jose Mourinho.
Winnitius has recorded only one goal and three assistings in eight La League presentations this season, statistics that are out of expectation for one of his level football players. The situation deteriorated after the Red Carton exemption against Willarreal, which resulted in a four-game suspension.
In his absence, 19-year-old Diomande has shown good performance, especially towards Seville, where he scored a goal, donated an assistation and won a penalty penalty.
The Ivory Coast talent has also highlighted in the drive, completing 31 out of 45 attempts, compared to 16 out of 36 of Winnicius before El Classicos.
These presentations have prompted discussions within the Madrillan club for the Brazilian future, with some leaders believing that its sale may be an opportunity to benefit financially, especially if Diomande continues to develop at the same pace.
However, Real Madrid is not under pressure to sell Winnicius, as the Brazilian recently renovated the contract until June 30th 2032.
This agreement gives the club a favourable position in negotiations and the opportunity to reject any offer that does not meet financial requirements.
At the moment, the figure of 150m euros is mentioned only as a possible starting point for negotiations, and no official offer from interested clubs is reported.
Winnitius is expected to return to La League on November 21st in confronting Celta Vigos, while his post-responsions could be crucial for the future at Santiago Bernabeu.
If the Brazilian fails to restore its form, and Diomande continues to shine, Real Madrid may take seriously the offers for its sale during 2027. /Telegraphy/
