Marca on Vinícius: “He doesn’t dribble and he doesn’t smile”

What the media are saying ahead of the AEK match
ALPHANEWSLIVE


Real Madrid is concerned about Vinícius’s performance on the field, with *Marca* highlighting his recent decline in form. In its report, the Spanish newspaper uses the word “disappearing” to describe the change in the Brazilian’s presence on the field.

As the Madrid-based newspaper points out, the “Queen’s” star no longer takes the initiative in one-on-one situations with the same frequency, and he has also been smiling less, traits that were hallmarks of his play and personality. At the same time, Marca expresses concern about his situation, referring not only to his decline in form but also to his behavior off the field.

“The match against AEK in Nea Filadelfia could prove decisive for Vinícius, as it will show whether his recent slump is merely a temporary setback or if his form remains a cause for concern. “His performances against Roma and Leipzig have already raised questions,” reports Marca, which emphasizes that his quality is not in question.

However, the Brazilian will not be available for his team’s upcoming matches, as he has been suspended for four games. As a result, he is expected to return to action on November 4, when Real Madrid faces AEK at the Allwyn Arena.
