Vinicius Jr next club odds: Saudi move tipped for Real Madrid star

A January move to the Saudi Pro League is tipped in the Vinicius Junior next club odds released by Ladbrokes, as Real Madrid contract talks stall.

The Brazilian winger could be set to wave goodbye to the Bernabeu midway through the 2025/26 season, with a move to any Saudi Arabian club during the winter window priced as just 9/2 by the bookies.

With the nearest challenger for Vini Jr all the way back at 16/1, the Saudi Pro League is by far the frontrunner to land his signature as speculation over his Real future continues.

Uncertainty is growing around Vinicius Jr's long-term future at Real Madrid with the winger entering the final 18 months of his contract in the Spanish capital and reports that talks over an extension have stalled.

The Saudi Pro League look set to take advantage of that uncertainty by offering to make him one of the division's highest-paid players after naming him as their top high-profile target, according to reports in Spain.

With Vinicius still a prominent part of Real's attack, he is set to have plenty of suitors should he leave Real but few can match the financial might of the Saudis, which is why they are 9/2 for the Brazil international.

Still aged just 25, Vini Jr would certainly be a huge coup for the state-funded league but given Los Blancos' abundance of attackers such as Kylian Mbappe and Rodrygo, both of whom favour a similarly left-sided role – and reports of unrest at the club – a January move could well be on the cards.

The nearest challengers for Vini Jr's signature are unsurprisingly two of Europe's wealthiest clubs, with Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, backed by Abu Dhabi and Qatar respectively, priced at 16/1 for the forward.

Premier League trio Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea are slightly further behind at 20/1, with Bayern Munich considered 25/1 challengers.

Further back, an ambitious move for Vinicius Jr by Saudi-backed Newcastle is given a 33/1 chance, with managerless Manchester United completing the market as a 40/1 long shot.
