Vinicius Jr says he feels happier and more confident than ever, aiming to replicate his Real Madrid success with Brazil ahead of the World Cup.
The 25-year-old winger overcame a 16-match goal drought early in the 2025-26 season to score 17 goals and deliver 13 assists in 43 appearances for Real Madrid.
Despite winning multiple Champions League and LaLiga titles, Vinicius has eight goals in 45 caps for Brazil and is determined to secure international silverware.
"I hope that everything I do for Real I can go on to do here with the Brazilian national team," Vinicius said ahead of Thursday’s friendly against France. "That's my biggest goal."
Brazil seeks redemption after their 2022 World Cup quarterfinal exit to Croatia. Vinicius emphasized focus, stating he knows his capabilities and is fully prepared for the tournament.
