Vinicius Jnr is reportedly closing in on committing his future to Real Madrid by signing a new deal.
Vinicius, 24, has shone for Real since joining the club from Flamengo for £38million at the age of 18, scoring 105 goals and adding 79 assists.

Real boss Carlo Ancelotti has also previously poured cold water on rumours linking Vinicius with Saudi Arabia.
Speaking back in February, he added: ‘Yes, I’m tired of this topic but I’m not worried. I see him happy and we are happy with him. There’s nothing more to add with respect to what I said a week or two weeks ago.

Los Blancos are currently second in LaLiga, seven points adrift of arch-rivals Barcelona, while they were comfortably knocked out of the Champions League quarter-finals by Arsenal.
They face Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final on Saturday, but given their poor run of form in recent months, Ancelotti is widely expected to leave the club come the end of the season.
Meanwhile, Vinicius missed out on winning the Ballon d’Or last year and while he has still scored 20 goals in 46 games, the Brazilian struggled to impact both legs of their damaging defeat by the Gunners in Europe.
