Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr transformed a pocket of Rio de Janeiro into his own theme park to celebrate his 25th birthday. 

The two-day attraction, dubbed Parque Baila Vini World, was reportedly organised by the winger for his enjoyment and that of an exclusive list of friends and family. 

Madrid colleagues Eduardo Camavinga and Reinier Jesus were among a guestlist that also included American rapper Travis Scott. The Houston native even graced the theme park-goers with a show. 

It appears that no expense was spared for the event that had several attractions to enjoy. 

A pendulum ride, called ‘Samba’, and a grasshopper with rotating arms were available for guests to get their adrenaline kick.

Vinicius Jr headed back to his native Brazil for some downtime after Madrid’s bruising semi-final defeat by Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup.

While back in his homeland, the forward unveiled his own wax statue, a life-size replica that is set to be transferred to Madame Tussauds in New York. 

The Brazilian’s time away from the European spotlight comes as speculation grows that he could depart football on the continent altogether, with contract talks with the Spanish giants at a standstill. 

AS report that all negotiations were put on hold after the initial approach which was made back in February.

The figure wanted was transmitted by his agent Frederico Pena and since then it is understood that there has been no further contact.

The Brazilian’s current contract, which sees him earn somewhere in the region £330,187-a-week.

After a stellar 2023-24 campaign that saw him finish second in the Ballon d’Or standings, the Brazilian was forced to adapt last year as Real welcomed the arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

Vinicius ultimately ended the season with 11 league goals from 24 starts as Carlo Ancelotti was unable to leverage his latest blockbuster arrival into yet more domestic glory.

Reports this week have claimed that the winger is at a standstill with the club over a new contract

Madrid are said to be at a crossroads with regards to a new deal, unwilling to offer him more than the over £500,000-a-week that Mbappe makes.

Back in February, the winger made a statement on the situation: ‘I hope the talks will be resolved in the coming days. It’s very exciting to be able to open talks with Real Madrid about my renewal.

‘I have a contract until I’m 27, but I’ve always said I want to play here for a long time, to make history, and to receive the affection of the fans alongside the president and the coaching staff.

‘God willing, the negotiations will be resolved in the coming days, and I’ll be able to stay here for much longer.’

Throughout his glittering spell in Madrid the 25-year-old has been consistently linked with becoming the latest high-profile star to join the Saudi Pro League.

Vinicius is said to have met with officials from the league, namely vice president Saad Al Lazeez, in Prague in 2023 as they attempted to sell him on the move.

Talks between the two parties have reportedly continued ever since, with the gulf state prepared to offer him a five-year deal worth £830million to join the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
