Arsenal is exploring the possibility of acquiring Vinicius, a striker with one year remaining on his contract who has yet to extend his deal with Real Madrid.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti affirmed that the decision to let Bruno Guimaraes take the penalty instead of Vinicius Junior in Brazil's 1-2 loss to Norway in the World Cup 2026 round of 16 was based on player success rate statistics.
Vinicius reveals coach Carlo Ancelotti once doubted his ability to score with a header and promised him a gift if he did, before the Brazilian forward scored in this manner during the victory over Scotland.
