Vinicius is following Ronaldo’s path at Real Madrid

Brazilian Vinicius has 12 goals and five assists, as well as three penalties this season. At his current rate, he is expected to score 50 goals, double last season’s tally (24). That’s a goal every 71 minutes.

“I’ll do it 10 times if I have to,” Vinicius warned. Hurt by the Ballon d’Or turning into the Silver Ball, Vinicius is proving that many who didn’t pick him were blind. Since then, Vinicius has gone through two games and scored four goals. One against AC Milan and three against Osasuna.

Vinicius’s most recent hat-trick was a response to his and Real’s “smile surgery” to ease (albeit temporarily) the sadness. “I don’t want to change the position of the player who makes the difference,” Carletto further explained Vinicius’ message.

It can be seen that Vinicius always knows how to go further after each season. The 2021/22 season saw 22 goals, then 23 goals in the 2022/23 season and 24 goals in the glorious previous season with the La Liga and Champions League double. That number is expected to increase dramatically this season.

With a hat-trick against Osasuna, Vinicius has a total of 12 goals. Although only 1/4 of the 2024/25 season has passed (17 matches out of a maximum of 72 matches), it has shown that Vinicius’ prediction of goals is not a fantasy. The number of 50 goals is completely feasible.

Vini has fought against the opponent’s goal with the finishing technique that former coach Zinedine Zidane taught him a few years ago. He practiced shooting every day, over and over again, tirelessly. Burying the belief that a goal scorer was a natural, Vinicius created his own image.
