Real Madrid leader reveals he wants to open his own football school
Real Madrid leader Vinícius Júnior has revealed that he wants to open his own football school in 2024.
"One of my biggest goals for next year is to open up the first school with my name. I want to open up a school because I always looked up to my idols - I always talk about Neymar Jr, Cristiano Ronaldo, LeBron James, Lewis Hamilton.
One that I follow closely is LeBron James, a few years ago he built a school carrying his name, where he helps many children. Last year, he invited children from my institute, and they said it was a great place where it’s not only taught about football, basketball or sports, but first of all, they provide education.
A person can spend so much time there and get closer to something that will help them in the future. I want to help many children in the future so that Brazil can be a country with better education and a better quality of life.” Vinicius said.
Earlier, it was reported that Vinicius decided to stay at Real Madrid. He will return to negotiations with Saudi clubs next summer.
