When did Vini join Madrid?

Vini’s performances have caught the eye of many clubs, but the Brazilian attacker doesn’t see himself playing for any other team.

Real Madrid for life

Vini was recently questioned about the possibility of playing in another league and admitted that the Premier League was a league everyone wanted to play in, The Real Champs reported.

“Of course, experiencing another league is important, and I think the Premier League is a league that every player wants to play in. But my dream is and always was to play for Real Madrid.”

Vini added that he was very happy here at the La Liga champions and saw himself staying there until the end of his career.

The news will greatly relieve Los Blancos fans, who have grown to love the young attacker.

Vini has played 187 games for the team, scored 44 goals and notched up 48 assists during his career at the club, Transfermarkt’s stats revealed. He has already grabbed eight goals and five assists in 17 games this season alone.
