Alkorta Tells Vinicius to Be Careful with Perez in Contract Talks or End up Like Ramos
Former Real Madrid star Rafael Alkorta has cautioned Vinicius Jr. to tread carefully in his contract talks with club president Florentino Perez, warning that the Brazilian risks facing the same fate as Sergio Ramos.
Alkorta pointed out that Ramos, despite being a club legend, saw his contract offer withdrawn in 2023 after tense negotiations with Perez. He stressed that challenging the Madrid president in such matters is a dangerous path.
“Trying to push Florentino too far can backfire. We saw it with Ramos,” Alkorta said, adding that disputes of this kind are “poisonous” because Perez, while affectionate, never hesitates to make ruthless decisions when necessary.
The ex-defender also suggested that Vinicius has struggled to find his rhythm since being moved from his natural left-wing role to a central position under Carlo Ancelotti, a tactical shift made to accommodate Kylian Mbappe.
“Since leaving the left side, he hasn’t looked the same. Playing alongside Mbappe has taken its toll,” Alkorta remarked, urging the young forward to be cautious both on and off the pitch.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
French footballer Kylian Mbappé has spoken on which player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will score more goals at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It can be noted that the FIFA World Cup will begin on Thursday and will be co-hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
The player picked Lionel Messi to score more goals than Ronaldo during the tournament.
