Madrid fans embrace Vinícius Júnior after not getting Mbappé

The Hindu  

Vinícius Júnior is quickly helping the Real Madrid faithful to forget about Kylian Mbappé. Madrid fans were frustrated with the failed negotiations to bring in Mbappé at the transfer deadline last month, but a few matches into the new season they have found that they can count on Vinícius Júnior. He has shown that he is worthy of playing with this team.” The 21-year-old Vinícius Júnior got off to a great start this season, scoring four goals in the first four matches and being a crucial part of Madrid's attack alongside Benzema. Madrid has long been after Mbappé to boost its attack but couldn't get a deal done with Paris Saint-Germain last month despite an offer that reportedly surpassed 200 million euros. Ancelotti is more than happy with Vinícius Júnior and Madrid's attack for now with the team having scored 13 goals in four matches, the most in the Spanish league so far.
