transfer of… Vinicius Junior from July 2018,” the La Liga club said in a
statement.
“The player will remain at his current club until July 2019, although
he will be able to play for Real Madrid before then if both clubs agree
to it.”Real gave no details of the transfer fee, but reports in the Spanish press claim the deal could be worth up to 40 million euros ($45 million).
