Paris Saint-Germain has been eyeing Vinicius Jr. for a very long time convincing him not to renew his contract with Real Madrid. He was on their radar since the 2019/20 season and in last year's summer window, they demanded the Brazilian player and cash if they had to release Mbappe. In the 2021/22 season, Vinicius was too good with his game, where he even netted the matchwinner in the Champions League Final.
PSG was on the back of Vinicius Jr. for several, pleading for him to join their club. He was also offered a salary of 40 million euros including the perks of other business opportunities in Qatar. Even though he could have made a move, Vinicius Jr decided to stand firm and not take any offers.
