Vinicius has come to be beloved by the Madrid fans after a testing couple of years at the beginning of his stint with the Spanish Capital City giants. The Brazilian enjoyed a successful relationship with former coach Carlo Ancelotti as the Los Blancos won multiple trophies including the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League.

Xabi Alonso, who took over the reins of the side from former head coach Ancelotti, led the Madrid-based side to the semifinals of the recently concluded FIFA Club World Cup in the USA, as Vini and Co. were shown the exit door by UCL holders PSG.
