Brazilian winger Vinicius Junior has lost his starting place in José Mourinho’s Real Madrid team, Spanish media outlet AS reports, cited by Daily Post. The player is reportedly no longer an automatic choice for the Portuguese coach.
Vinicius, who has scored just once since the start of the season, is aware of the situation and is not upset by it, according to AS. The Brazilian had been one of Real Madrid’s key players in recent seasons.
The decision comes during José Mourinho’s first weeks in charge of the Madrid club, where the coach has already been questioned about Cristiano Ronaldo following the latter’s international retirement, a subject on which he declined to pass judgement in early November.
