Tensions surrounding Vinicius Junior at Real Madrid have flared up again, reigniting debate among supporters despite a comfortable victory over Sevilla on Saturday night that was overshadowed by Kylian Mbappe's record-setting display.
The Brazilian forward found himself at the centre of controversy after being booed by sections of the Santiago Bernabeu crowd when Carlo Ancelotti substituted him late in the game.
Shortly afterwards, Vinicius changed his social media profile picture to an image of himself wearing a Brazil national team shirt, a move that many fans viewed as a deliberate provocation rather than an innocent gesture.
