What now for Vinicius?
Vinicius Junior’s Real Madrid future is up in the air following his angry reaction to being substituted against Barcelona.
The Brazilian stormed down the tunnel when he was taken off by Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso in the 72nd-minute.
As he left the pitch, he could reportedly be heard saying: "Always me. I’m leaving the team, it’s better if I leave, I’m leaving."
According to AS, Vinicius feels that his status at the club is not being "respected" and he is "seriously" considering leaving.
"Vinicius perceives that he is not a player to Xabi Alonso's taste. And that this situation is unsustainable," reports AS.
It is added that Vinicius is not ruling out leaving next summer if he doesn't get the same strong backing from Alonso as other star names do.
Vinicius is under contract until 2027 and, according to El Mundo Deportivo, plans to wait until signing a new deal.

Who will replace Tudor at Juventus?
Luciano Spalletti and Raffaele Palladino are reportedly the leading candidates to be the next Juventus head coach.
Juve are on the lookout for a new boss after sacking Igor Tudor following a 1-0 defeat to Lazio.
Fabrizio Romano has reported that Spalletti and Palladino are the frontrunners, while JuveFC.com say Spalletti is the favourite for the role.
Spalletti was sacked as Italy head coach in June, and Palladino has been out of work since leaving Fiorentina at the end of the 2024/25 season.
Massimiliano Brambilla will be in caretaker charge against Udinese on Tuesday.
Chelsea target Ter Stegen
Chelsea are reportedly looking to sign out-of-favour Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
According to Sky Sport in Switzerland, Chelsea are exploring a loan deal for Ter Stegen, who has fallen behind Wojciech Szczesny in the pecking order at Barca.
AC Milan’s Mike Maignan is reportedly another option as he is out of contract next summer.
Robert Sanchez has been Chelsea’s No. 1 this season.

Gila unsure on Lazio future
Mario Gila’s future at Lazio is up in the air with the defender admitting he is unsure if he will sign a new deal.
Gila has been linked with Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion and AC Milan, with his current deal expiring in 2027.
"It’s something I’ll have to think about," he said after the weekend win over Juventus.
"I’m happy at Lazio, my contract expires in 2027 and there’s still some time left. It’s something I’ll have to discuss with my agents too. I have to say that I’ve proven who I am as a player.
"There are advantages and disadvantages to having a contract expiring. If they offer me a salary, I'll think about it. I care a lot about Lazio, we have to wait a bit."
