According to Tuttomercatoweb, citing Cadena SER, Real Madrid has a plan if Vinicius Junior refuses to extend his contract and leaves. His transfer, which is estimated at over 100 million euros, would be used to sign Portuguese midfielder Vitinha from Paris Saint-Germain. PSG considers Vitinha a central part of their project, and the player recently extended his contract until 2030. There are currently no concrete negotiations between the clubs. Luka Modrić has repeatedly identified Vitinha as his 'successor' at Madrid and has praised him in interviews, stating that Vitinha is one of the best, if not the best midfielder in the world.

Real Madrid considers Paris Saint-Germain's Vitinha to be the ideal profile to strengthen their midfield and he is one of the club's priority targets. According to Cadena SER, Real Madrid is decisively targeting Vitinha as a transfer objective. However, PSG considers Vitinha a key element of their project and has no intention of allowing him to leave. At the moment, no negotiations have started.

A report from Cadena SER states that Real Madrid has made Vitinha a target if Vinicius does not renew his contract. The report also indicates that Real Madrid would request over 100 million euros for Vinicius and would use that money to pursue the Portuguese midfielder from PSG.

According to the Spanish media DefensaCentral, an outlet known for its closeness to Real Madrid, Florentino Perez confirmed the 90 million euro release clause in Vitinha's contract. DefensaCentral also reported that Perez confirmed they want to pay 90 million euros to PSG and complete the transfer.

According to Defensa Central, Luka Modrić has identified Vitinha as an ideal candidate to replace him at Real Madrid. It is reported that Vitinha's contract with PSG contains a gentlemen's clause set between 90 and 100 million euros, which would require the Parisian club to accept an offer in that range if the player expresses a desire to leave. Vitinha's current salary is almost 11 million euros per season. Also according to Defensa Central, PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi is reportedly ready to almost double Vitinha's salary to keep him in Paris beyond 2029, when his current contract expires. A potential transfer is complicated by strained relations between Real Madrid and PSG. These relations are at their lowest point since the Kylian Mbappé saga, with additional tensions having arisen due to alleged unpaid debts to Mbappé.

Fichajes reports that Vitinha wants to sign for Real Madrid, who are currently courting him. According to the report, PSG will not sell for under €100million (£87.4m), although a previous Fichajes report suggested Real Madrid were considering an offer of €50million (£43.7m) and Rodrygo. By the summer of 2026, Vitinha will be available for €90million (£78.7m) owing to a release clause. Real Madrid are reportedly waiting to see if the €100million fee is negotiable.

According to Fichajes, Real Madrid are closely monitoring PSG's Vitinha and are planning a 'firm offensive' to sign him. The move would amount to €50 million and include Real winger Rodrygo. The report adds that the French side would not let Vitinha go unless an 'exorbitant fee' was paid.

Real Madrid could try a swap deal for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Vitinha by offering Rodrygo Goes to PSG as part of any bid, according to Fichajes.

Real Madrid is reportedly interested in Vitinha, with a supposed release clause of 90 million euros that could be activated next summer, allowing him to leave without negotiating with Paris Saint-Germain. Marca reports that Vitinha remains a key target for Real Madrid, although a move this summer is unlikely. Real Madrid might make a strong push for him by June 2026.

Real Madrid target Vitinha has a release clause of €135 million ($157.4 million) in his Paris Saint-Germain contract this summer which will drop down to €90 million ($105 million) next year, writes Andres Martinez. Such clauses are illegal in France but could be replicated by a verbal agreement between club and player.

Real Madrid is interested in signing Vitinha as a replacement for Luka Modric and Toni Kroos. PSG demands 130 million euros for the Portuguese midfielder.

Real Madrid are readying a bid of close to €100 million ($117.8 million) for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Vitinha, per Fichajes. Xabi Alonso sees the Portugal international as his dream replacement for Luka Modrić.
