I'd have left Real Madrid if I were Vinicius Jr, says Jose Mourinho

Jose Mourinho has said he would have left Real Madrid if he were Vinicius Jr, offering a direct view on the forward’s situation at the Spanish club.

Real Madrid Prepare for Sevilla Test

The comments come as Real Madrid prepare to face Sevilla on Sunday. Madrid are aiming to avoid falling further behind Barcelona in the league standings.

Barcelona, identified as the league leaders, are scheduled to visit Real Betis later on Saturday. The two fixtures will therefore take place across the same weekend as the title race continues to draw attention.

Focus on Vinicius Jr

Mourinho’s assessment places Vinicius Jr at the center of the discussion surrounding Real Madrid. His remarks do not include further details about the circumstances behind the view, while the available information does not state whether the Brazilian forward plans to leave the club.

Real Madrid’s immediate schedule is clear: Sevilla await on Sunday, with Madrid seeking to prevent Barcelona from extending its advantage at the top of the league.
