At the halfway point of the summer transfer window, Real Madrid made a bold move: attempting to sign Portuguese midfielder Vitinha from Paris Saint-Germain. But the response from Paris was swift and firm — not for sale.
According to Defensa Central and AS, Los Blancos approached Jorge Mendes, Vitinha’s agent, to explore the possibility of a transfer. Xabi Alonso is reportedly a huge admirer of the 24-year-old, viewing him as a natural heir to the recently retired Toni Kroos. Creative, hard-working, and consistent — Vitinha fits the mold of the modern midfielder.
€130 Million or Nothing
But PSG isn’t entertaining any offers. The club sees Vitinha as untouchable. Only a fee close to €130 million would even start the conversation — a figure deemed excessive by Florentino Pérez, who already boasts a stacked midfield with Tchouaméni, Camavinga, and Bellingham.
PSG Not Backing Down
As a result, Real Madrid has backed off. Vitinha remains a key figure in Luis Enrique’s plans and won’t be leaving the French capital this summer. PSG has locked down its midfield — and sent a clear message in the process.
In this standoff, PSG made their position crystal clear: Vitinha is staying.
