(VIDEO) They said Mbappé & Vinicius wouldn’t get along at Real Madrid, Vini’s surprising response to Kylian’s arrival

Real Madrid fans are excited that their team will be playing another Champions League Final this Saturday but they are also excited to soon have Kylian Mbappé in their squad as he is set to be announced as their new signing. One of Real Madrid’s star players, Vinicius Jr., is already regarded as one of the best players in the world, and as the Champions League final gets closer, the media asked him about potentially playing with Mbappé next season. Vinicius laughed and said, “Mbappé? That depends on the president who signs them all. I hope he can decide his future soon. I always want to play with the best.” Fans believe that this is a slight hint that Mbappé will indeed be his future teammate next season at Real Madrid, and it is a link-up that many football fans want to see on the pitch at the same time.

While Vinicius Jr. and Mbappé could be teammates next season, they are currently battling for the Ballon d’Or award. Vinicius was asked about competing for the prestigious individual award and said, “Competing with Mbappé for the Ballon d’Or? I never thought about it. I think about what I can contribute to the team. Goals and assists. The best thing that could happen to us this season is to win the Champions League.”

Another question the media asked Vinicius was if he would sign winning the Champions League and be happy if Toni Kroos won the Ballon d’Or. Vinicius showed his humility by saying, “No, no, I sign it, I sign to win the Champions League and the Copa America, and the Ballon D’Or for Toni Kroos. It’s his last season, we won’t see him play again.”

Jude Bellingham thinks Vinicius Jr. should win the Ballon d’Or

Jude Bellingham is another Real Madrid player many football fans believe should win the Ballon d’Or this year. Bellingham was asked who he thinks should win it and he said, “Ballon d’Or? For me, Viní Jr is the best in the world. He creates magic out of nothing. He has everything to be the best.”

Vinicius thinks that Bellingham should win the award, and the English midfielder said, “Viní Jr said I’m the best in the world? If that’s how he feels, then you can split the Ballon d’Or in two.”
