"Real comfortably beat Barcelona 2-1 in El Clasico, with Jude Bellingham popping up with an assist and the winning goal at the Bernabeu, sending Xabi Alonso's men five points clear at the top of La Liga. But the victory was overshadowed by Vinicius's antics after being hauled off in the second half, as his future is a topic of discussion in the Spanish capital once more."
"Reacting with disgust in the 72nd minute when he was replaced by compatriot Rodrygo, Vinicius appeared to question Alonso repeatedly as he walked towards the bench, with the Basque coach replying, Come on Vini, damn it. The Brazilian headed straight for the dressing room before appearing on the bench moments later, and was quoted by DAZN as having said, I'm leaving the team, it's better if I leave."
Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 in El Clasico with Jude Bellingham providing an assist and scoring the winner, moving Xabi Alonso's side five points clear in La Liga. Vinicius Jr was substituted in the 72nd minute for Rodrygo, reacted angrily while walking to the bench, and was later quoted saying he would leave the team. The substitution intensified an already strained relationship between Vinicius and Alonso after earlier selection choices. Alonso's tactical preference has shifted players across wings, reducing Vinicius's talismanic role and fueling transfer rumours linking him to Manchester City or Saudi clubs.
