Vinicius Jr. is one of Brazil’s most fit players, and the Real Madrid player proved it with a goal in Monday night’s 4-1 win over South Korea.

According to the Daily Mail, the Brazilian star is ready to terminate the contract with one of his sponsors due to an incredible reason.

Vinicius Jr. wants to terminate his contract with Nike – the Brazilian believes that he is treated unfairly by his sponsor

The young player of Real Madrid is unhappy that the model of boots that Nike sent him for this World Cup turned out to be outdated, O Globo reports.

In addition, the American brand would exclude Vinicius from advertising created just before the final tournament, an aspect that bothered him even more.

Vinicius Jr receives €8 million annually from Nike to represent their image, and the deal runs until 2028.

Brazil’s rights holder Vinicius would begin the process of immediately terminating his contract with Nike with his lawyers, intending to forgo the estimated €50 million he would have earned before the contract expires.
