Vinicius Junior has reportedly turned down the chance to make a lucrative move to the Saudi Pro League.

As reported by The Athletic, the winger's representatives were contacted by the Public Investment Fund delegation, working on behalf of the country’s Ministry of Sport.

PIF were looking to persuade Vinicius to become the face of the league ahead of the 2034 World Cup, which is set to be hosted by Saudi Arabia.

However, Real Madrid have no intention of selling Vinicius and the player is eager to remain at the club and continue working under Carlo Ancelotti.

Vinicius, whose current contract runs until 2027, has a release clause of €1billion (£855million).

So far Vinicius has made 264 appearances for Real and has scored 83 goals, while he has provided 75 assists.

He has won two Champions Leagues, three LaLiga titles and the Copa del Rey.
