Real Madrid manager, Jose Mourinho has claimed he would have forced a move away from the club if he was in Vinicius Junior’s shoes.
Mourinho believes that Vinicius Jr is not being respected in LaLiga and would have been appreciated abroad.
He said: “If I were in his position, I would probably not still be here.
“Last summer, I would probably have forced my way out to another league, where I would have been respected by other clubs and opposition fans.
“But because of his love for the club and the city, he believes things can still improve. He extended his contract and continues to smile.”
Vinicius Jr was heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in the summer, as he entered into the final months of his old contract.
But the Brazil winger signed a fresh deal after talks with Mourinho and club president Florentino Perez.
