Vinicius Junior made a triumphant return to goalscoring form with a brace against RB Salzburg, helping Real Madrid to a dominant 5-1 victory.

The Brazilian forward's double brought his total to 101 goals for the club, earning him a commemorative shirt from President Florentino Perez.

Vinicius expressed his admiration for Ronaldo, one of his idols, and reflected on surpassing the Brazilian legend in goals.

He also addressed rumors regarding the potential impact of Kylian Mbappe's arrival at the club, assuring that Mbappe has adapted well and, with the help of himself and Rodrygo, will aim to become the top scorer in all competitions.

Despite ongoing links to a potential €350m move to Saudi Arabia, Vinicius reaffirmed his commitment to Real Madrid, stating that his focus remains on improving and winning more titles with the club.

He will miss Real Madrid’s upcoming matches against Real Valladolid and Brest due to a suspension but will return for the knockout stages of the Champions League.
