Real Madrid and Brazil forward Vinícius Júnior is in talks to buy his own football club by buying Portuguese side F.C. Alverca.
Vinícius is one of the best players in football today, having won the FIFA Best Player award at the end of last year.
In addition to winning awards and helping his team win trophies, he is one of the highest-paid players in football and has other related activities.
Portuguese media reported that the player wants to move to the second division in the country, and buy F.C. Alverca, which has been in the league for one year, for $10.25 million.
Vinícius became the seventh highest-paid player in 2024, according to Forbes.
He can earn at least $55 million a year, including $40 million in salary and other benefits from the team and $15 million from endorsements with companies like Nike, Gatorade, Pepsi, Unilever and Sony.
Buying a team will be easy for him because in 2021 he bought the player benefits agency Papa Media House SL.
