New Details Emerge About Vinícius Jr.’s Heated Outburst During El Clásico
Fresh reports have surfaced about the explosive reaction Vinícius Jr. allegedly had during Real Madrid’s latest match, and the revelations cast an uncomfortable light on both the player’s emotions and the club’s internal atmosphere.
The Brazilian forward once again became the centre of media attention in Spain on Sunday after his highly charged response to being taken off in Real Madrid’s showdown with Barcelona.
The El Clásico clash — tense, emotional, and fiercely competitive — began with Vinícius showing his trademark energy and skill. But midway through the second half, manager Xabi Alonso made a tactical substitution that seemingly shocked everyone, especially the 25-year-old winger.
As soon as Vinícius noticed his number on the substitution board, his frustration was immediate and unmistakably visible.
TV cameras captured him approaching the touchline angrily, gesturing toward the bench, shouting in frustration, and shaking his head repeatedly. His reaction quickly became the main talking point after the match, reigniting debates about footballers’ professionalism and emotional control.
Now, Mundo Deportivo has offered new insight into what Vinícius was reportedly shouting in that moment.
According to the outlet, as he walked off the pitch, the Brazilian star was heard yelling emotional comments toward the bench, including:
“You’re taking me off again!? Always me! I’m done with this. I should just leave.”
Though brief, the words — as reported by the Spanish media — highlight just how upset the forward felt about being replaced in a match of such magnitude. Sources suggest he believed the decision unfairly singled him out despite what he felt was a solid performance.
The incident has sparked significant discussion within the Real Madrid community. Some supporters argue that his anger simply reflects his passion and will to compete in the biggest fixtures. Others view the behaviour as disrespectful, suggesting it could create unnecessary tension inside the dressing room.
As of now, Real Madrid have made no public statement about the matter, but several reports claim the club may address the situation privately in the days ahead.
