Real president, Florentino Perez wants Vinicius to play on the right. Perez signed the youngster himself and is desperate to see him succeed at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, Madrid manager, Zidane is of the opinion that the youngster is too green to be playing in such an important position.
The Frenchman believes that the club needs a marquee signing this summer to occupy the vacant spot. Both Zidane and Perez would love to bring in Kylian Mbappe. However, they both understand that doing so this season would be an uphill task. The French forwards price is out of Madrid’s budget ang both Zidane and Perez understand this.
Zidane is also impressed by Liverpool’s Sadio Mane. The Senegalese scored 26 goals and 5 assists in 50 games. They are reportedly even looking to offer Marco Asensio to that end. However, the most surprising of these choices are Mane’s teammate, Mohammed Salah!
