○One of the best signings in recent years is undoubtedly the move of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid. The melodrama between the striker and the Spanish club was very long, but the Frenchman ended up joining Los Blancos, and Vinicius was one of the people who wanted this the most.
The Brazilian striker currently has a great partnership with Mbappé, but it was not known that Vigny was involved in the French player’s arrival process and was constantly in talks with him to find out when he would arrive in Madrid.

Vinicius reveals details of Mbappe’s contract with Real Madrid
Vigni chatted with Ibai and one of the several topics discussed was Mbappé’s signing with Real Madrid, one of the most important Spanish clubs since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and which took a long time to materialize.
Speaking to Ibye, Vigny was very honest and said that he was keen to include Mbappé in his squad and that he was also involved in this process, as he often spoke to the French player to get first-hand information.
Yes, yes, “if possible.” I wrote to Mbappé all summer and asked him, “When are you coming?” When will you come? Our relationship wasn’t very good, but I wrote him letters all summer long.
The Brazilian striker admitted that he had asked Mbappé many times when he would arrive, but also clarified that the Frenchman was not very specific: “Yes, but he never gave a clear answer (laughs).”
Real Madrid aim for revenge against Benfica
Real Madrid have had a rather unstable season and need to regain their confidence as soon as possible. The Merengues’ big chance lies in the Champions League, where they will face Benfica again in a bid to reach the round of 16.
The Spanish team lost to Benfica, led by Jose Mourinho, and was excluded from the final eight of the Champions League, so they will now face two sides.
The first match will be in Portugal, with Benfica hosting Madrid on Tuesday 17th February. These two matches will be key for Alvaro Arbeloa. Alvaro Arbeloa is trying to regain his confidence but is under enormous pressure and obligation to advance as far as possible in the Champions League.
