Real Madrid supporters received reassuring news on Sunday concerning Vinícius Jr.’s fitness, confirming that the star forward will avoid a significant layoff.
Anxiety had mounted in Spain’s capital over the past 24 hours after reports indicated the 25-year-old, currently on international duty with the Brazilian national team, sat out Saturday’s training session due to a fitness complaint. This incident followed his appearance in Brazil’s midweek friendly loss to France and initially fueled speculation of a potential long-term absence for the winger.
Fortunately, these concerns have been alleviated. It is now anticipated that Vinícius Jr. will be fit for Real Madrid’s next fixture against Mallorca, scheduled for one week’s time. While Brazil’s medical team continues to assess his condition, any decision to rest him for their upcoming match against Croatia would be purely a precautionary step.
