The Brazilian star Extends Apology to Los Blancos Devotees

Vinicius Jr in action

The attacker has netted 5 goals in ten Spanish league outings so far this term.

Los Merengues attacker Vinicius Jr has said sorry to the fanbase for his response when replaced in the recent fiery Clasico clash triumph.

He was replaced in the 72nd minute and expressed his disappointment by heading directly off the pitch.

He eventually reappeared to the bench and, following his team's 2-1 victory, tried to confront Barça's youngster Yamal during unpleasant final whistle exchanges.

"Today I want to apologise to all the supporters for my reaction when I was substituted in the derby," Vinicius wrote on X.

"Similarly to I have already done during this morning's training, I wish to apologise again to my team-mates, the team, and the president.

"Occasionally passion overcomes me because I always want to triumph and help my side. My determined nature stems from the love I have for this institution and each thing it stands for."

The player signed for Madrid from Flamengo in the year 2018 for a significant fee and has accumulated 111 goals in 335 appearances.

But his career in the Spanish capital is far from certain with reports in recent months indicating that Real would think about permitting the player leave if they got a appropriate bid.

When the winger was replaced on Sunday, cameras from network the platform recorded him remarking: "It's always me! I'm leaving the team! It's preferable if I go, I'm going."

In his most recent message on social media, the athlete stated: "I vow to keep fighting at all times for the benefit of the club, as I have acted since the initial arrival."
