Vinicius Junior warned Real Madrid contract stand off could ‘backfire'
Ammon News - Real Madrid and Vinicius Junior remain blocked over talks for a new deal that could keep the Brazil international at the club long-term. The main issue focuses on the demands reportedly changing on the player's end with the two parties now no longer in conversations over a possible renewal. With two years remaining on his deal, speculation has ramped up over his future, with the Los Blancos No.7 the subject of constant interest from the Saudi Pro League, with figures of a €300m transfer fee and a €1bn contract being thrown around. In February, Vinicius reportedly met with Saudi officials to hear their offer. Yet it all seemed to have settled down in March as reports emerged of he and Real Madrid agreeing terms on a new contract. Vinicius is keen to stay at Real Madrid, as per Diario AS, with the latest indicating he is not contemplating leaving the Spanish capital and his intention is to sign a new contract. Real Madrid are keen to resolve the issue, as they believe there is no player on the market like him, despite rumours of president Florentino Perez being open to an exit if he can bring in Erling Haaland. Perez will be central to what comes next and former Real Madrid defender Rafa Aklkorta warned Vinicius not to take him on. 'Trying to pressure on Florentino Perez can backfire, as it did with Sergio Ramos,' as per Diario Sport.

Ammon News - PEP Guardiola's divorce is set to be finalised 'imminently'. The Manchester City boss and wife Cristina Serra had hoped to keep their split friendly, but sources say there is now 'more urgency' as their relationship has deteriorated. Pep's marriage woes, reported by The Sun in January, coincided with his worst slump as a manager. And there are fears the troubles could overshadow the start of the new season. The Spaniard has already vowed to leave the Etihad after his contract runs out in 2027, saying he needs to 'focus on myself'. Insiders said his relationship with estranged wife Cristina has moved from 'friendly to cordial' amid 'complicated negotiations'. They expect details to be finalised in weeks and made official as early as next month. Respected Spanish journalists Laura Fa and Lorena Vazquez, who broke the story of their split, insisted there is no way back. Fa said: 'The signing of this divorce is going to be imminent. Evidently their relationship sentimentally has come to an end.' Vazquez said: 'The relationship has ceased to be friendly and has become cordial. We're not saying there's tension between them but the break-up has moved on to another level. 'There's perhaps more urgency to set a date for the end of this relationship.' Pep, 54, and Cristina, 52, have been together for 30 years and wed in 2014. The Sun
