Vinicius Jr to 'break contract agreement' after Brazil star's brutal World Cup 2022 snub

Real Madrid star and Brazil international Vinicius Junior is set to end his contract with Nike after he was excluded from the company’s World Cup promotional video for the national team.

The 22-year-old has risen to prominence as one of the most exciting footballers in the world and has become a regular star for both club and country. Vinicius bagged 22 goals last season including the winning strike in Madrid’s Champions League final victory over Liverpool. He is already into double figures this campaign as his strong form continues.

That has ensured that the Brazilian forward has become one of the most marketable players in football, due to his prominence and status at two of the most recognisable teams in both the club and international game.
