Vinicius Junior compared to Ronaldinho and Neymar by Cesc Fabregas

Almost 5 years after moving to Real Madrid, Vinicius Junior has become one of the most important players in Carlo Ancelotti’s starting XI.

The dizzying figures of the Brazilian prove that the 45 million euros invested by “Los Blancos” were not spent in vain.

Vinicius has scored 18 goals and provided 9 assists in 36 appearances this season, with a market share of €120 million according to Transfermarkt.

The Real Madrid winger was also spotted by former Barcelona player Cesc Fabregas, who compared Vinicius to Ronaldinho and Neymar.

“Vinicius’ performance is a little bit of everything. If I was a defender, I would try to cover him as best as I could, even doing things that I don’t do with others, because he is better.

You should try to get him out of the game because he’s really good. He is quite a small guy, and you have to take that into account. If he does well, he will be unstoppable like Ronaldinho or Neymar.” – said Fabregas, reports Cadena Ser.

In addition, Cesc Fabregas emphasized that he offered “Barcelona” to buy Aurelien Chuameni, who in the meantime arrived at “Santiago Bernabeu”.

“I advised Barcelona to sign Chuameni from Monaco, but they couldn’t afford it.”
