Real Madrid's winger Extends Regret to Los Blancos Supporters
The attacker has netted 5 strikes in ten La Liga appearances during the current campaign.
The Madrid giants forward Vinicius Jr has expressed regret to the fanbase for his reaction when replaced in the recent heated match against Barcelona victory.
The Brazilian was substituted in the second half and showed his disappointment by walking immediately down the tunnel.
Vinicius subsequently came back to the dugout and, following his club's 2-1 win, tried to confront Barcelona's Lamine Yamal during contentious final whistle scenes.
"This day I want to express regret to all the supporters for my behavior when I was replaced in the Clasico," he shared on social media.
"Similarly to I have previously expressed during today's training, I would like to apologise again to my colleagues, the team, and the president.
"Sometimes fervor overcomes me because I always want to triumph and support my side. My competitive character originates in the affection I hold for this club and all it represents."
Vinicius moved to the Spanish capital from Flamengo in 2018 for a significant fee and has notched 111 goals in 335 appearances.
But his prospects in the Spanish capital is uncertain with reports in recent months stating that Real would contemplate permitting the young star depart if they got a appropriate bid.
When Vinicius was taken off on Sunday, cameras from broadcaster the service captured him saying: "Always me! I'm leaving the team! It's preferable if I go, I'm going."
In his most recent post on X, Vinicius said: "I vow to keep fighting constantly for the benefit of Los Blancos, as I have performed since the initial arrival."
