Vinicius Junior Warns of ‘Brutal’ Mbappe Partnership at Real Madrid
Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior has issued a chilling warning to opponents about his upcoming partnership with Kylian Mbappe. The Brazilian superstar is eagerly anticipating the French forward’s debut season at the Santiago Bernabeu following his high-profile move from Paris Saint-Germain.
In an interview with club media, Vinicius expressed his excitement about linking up with Kylian Mbappe and the potential for a devastating attacking duo.
“It’s going to be brutal,” he said. “Everyone is hoping we can do great things this season. We have to take care of him and we are doing everything so that he can adapt as quickly as possible because it’s always very complicated to come to another club.
“But we’ve already done that with Jude, who came last season and shone, so hopefully we can spend a lot more with Kylian. Endrick as well is coming in now, he is very young but already has it in his head that he can help us when we need him.
“I want to win more titles than last season, score more goals, make more assists, and keep evolving because I am only 24 years old. I’ve been here for six years already. It’s time to come back and be focused because the first game is already a final for us, we are preparing and waiting for the remaining players so that this season is like the last one.”
Real Madrid will face Serie A side Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup on 14 August, before looking ahead to the La Liga season opener on 18 August at Mallorca.
