The players with the highest valuation in Germany are Vinicius and Haaland, both of whom are worth as much as 200 million euros, both of whom are strikers, so they are called "the most expensive strikers" by fans, but Real Madrid's contract renewal with the most expensive striker Vinicius has been blocked again, just because the player has opened his mouth in terms of salary!
According to the latest news from the Spanish media "Marca", Real Madrid's 24-year-old Brazilian winger Vinicius's agent team Roc Nation Brasil asked for a net salary of 30 million euros, which is far from the psychological price of Real Madrid, Real Madrid insisted that Vinicius's annual salary after contract renewal would not exceed 20 million euros, and due to huge differences, the contract renewal negotiations between the two sides have been forced to stop.
