Vinicius Jr. revealed his desire to stay at Real Madrid long-term ahead of the Champions League match.

On the eve of the highly anticipated Champions League quarter-final first leg match against Bayern Munich at home, Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior gave an interview to the media.

Regarding the question of whether he will stay or leave, which is of great concern to fans, Vinicius offered reassurance. Although he has only one year left on his current contract, he appears quite relaxed about it.

Vinicius revealed that he enjoys the trust of the club president, and both sides have a clear plan for the future. He said, "I hope to play here for a long time because Real Madrid is my dream club, and I feel incredibly happy here."

When asked about his current physical and mental state, Vinicius confidently stated that he feels great. He admitted that he experienced a difficult period at the beginning of the season, not only suffering a goal drought but also facing boos from fans.

But Vinicius wasn't defeated by the setback; instead, he viewed it as an opportunity for learning and growth. He emphasized that he is currently in peak form this season. Despite the frequent travel between club and national team duties, he ensures he is always 100% fit through close collaboration with the club's medical team and his personal physiotherapist.

Vinicius Jr. responded to criticism regarding the Mbappe-Vinicius partnership's failure to perform in important matches. He stated, "When you have many excellent players in the team, you can talk about anything."

“Mbappé always gives us confidence and goals. Tomorrow is a tough game, and the best players will play a decisive role here, and he is one of the best. We have a very good understanding on and off the pitch. We are always together and will always fight for this club.”
