The diminutive 21-year-old first signed for Spurs from Sevilla in the summer of 2021 for a €25m fee plus Erik Lamela.

Vinicius Junior fired back ten minutes later, beating Igor Zubeldia easily before putting his shot just inches wide of the post. As the first half wore on, Madrid slowlyRead More →
