Madrid – As Real Madrid aim for an ambitious season, head coach Xabi Alonso has made one of his top priorities clear: bringing back the very best version of Vinícius Júnior.
One-on-one sessions to rebuild confidence
According to sources at Valdebebas, Alonso has been spending one-on-one moments with Vinícius during training sessions. The Spanish coach is focusing not only on technical and physical aspects but also on the psychological side, helping the Brazilian forward restore the confidence that has always been his greatest weapon.
“Vinícius is a player who can make the difference in a single moment. What matters most is getting him back to his best mental state,” Alonso said in a recent interview.
Real Madrid’s attacking weapon

There is no doubt about Vinícius Júnior’s talent. With explosive speed, dazzling dribbling skills, and fearlessness in front of goal, he has often been the decisive factor behind Real’s triumphs. However, in recent months, Vini’s form has dipped, leaving Real without one of their most dangerous weapons.
That is why Alonso views “reviving” Vinícius as a crucial mission—not only for the player himself but also for the team’s overall ambitions.
Backed by staff and fans
Madridistas have also expressed their faith in Alonso’s plan. Many believe that the coach’s direct involvement will help Vini quickly regain his touch and rediscover the spark needed for big games.
The season is long, and if Vinícius Júnior returns to top form, Real Madrid will surely have another “heavy weapon” in their pursuit of silverware.
