Real want to exchange Vinicius for Haaland

Vinicius and Haaland will swap places?

Vinicius has repeatedly stated his desire to stay at the Bernabeu, but contract negotiations have stalled due to his high salary demands. This standoff has led to a surprising scenario: Real Madrid are considering using Vinicius as a bargaining chip in a deal to sign Erling Haaland from Manchester City in the summer of 2026.

According to Fichajes , President Florentino Perez understands that Mbappe's arrival has transformed Real's attack, but the squad still lacks a true striker. He sees Erling Haaland as the missing piece. The Norwegian striker has long expressed his desire to join Real and the possibility of playing alongside Mbappe is considered a possible prospect.

Meanwhile, Vinicius is going through a period of not so good results. Under coach Xabi Alonso, he has been forced to adapt to a new tactical system, focusing more on pressing and supporting the defense. Although he is still an important factor, his attacking efficiency has decreased significantly.

The pressure to keep his starting position and the unclear contract extension requirements have made Real's board of directors not rule out the possibility of parting ways with him to serve a strategic deal.

On Manchester City's side, Pep Guardiola has always appreciated players with speed, technique and the ability to break through like Vinícius. If this deal is successful, the English team will own a star who can adapt to both wings, creating a new attacking option in the context of Haaland's uncertain future.
