Real player retires, Perez pushed to sell Vinicius

A young Real Madrid player ends his career, Vinicius for sale? This is the transfer window news for November 14, 2024.

At just 19 years old, Marc Cucalon, a promising midfielder trained at Real Madrid, made the difficult decision to end his career. Injured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during a Youth League match against Celtic in September 2022, he then suffered an infection which severely damaged the cartilage in his joint. Despite all his efforts to return to the field, he ultimately had to give up, putting an end to his sporting ambitions. “After several complications, this injury forced me to make the difficult decision to say goodbye to football, at least in the way I had always dreamed of,” the Madrilenian said on Instagram.

Barça is fine, everyone knows that, but at Real Madrid, it wouldn't be joy either. According to Sport, the conflicts around the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, in particular noise pollution and the cancellation of concerts, have led to a significant loss of income, initially estimated at 400 million euros per year. This shortfall complicates the club's financial situation. Another major concern is the partnership with Legends and Sixth Street, two companies that have invested to operate the stadium for twenty years. This contract, supposed to bring 360 million euros, lost its value following the reduction in events organized at the Bernabéu. Real Madrid is seeking to remedy this situation to satisfy its financial partners.

500 million for Vinicius

So much so that management is exploring the sale of Vinicius Jr. to ease financial pressures. An astronomical offer from Saudi Arabia could net the club more than €500 million, although Vinicius has expressed his desire to stay. This situation puts Florentino Pérez faced with a dilemma, shared between the advice of those close to him and the player's attachment to the club. His son, who is gaining weight at the club, would push him to agree to sell the player as quickly as possible.
