More than just a match for Vinicius

Vinicius will be included in Zinedine Zidane's squad for the Santiago Bernabeu match against Villarreal. A moment he has been waiting for for several months since that fateful night against Ajax.

61 days have passed since he last wore white for Real Madrid. With Zidane at the helm, the former Flamengo player will have game time for Los Blancos once again.

An opportunity to see what Zidane wants from a player who has shown that he really wants to be playing in Madrid next season. He started in Castilla and became one of the main hopes in a campaign to forget.

That's why all the fans look forward to his return. And Vinicius, beyond what he wants to achieve at Madrid, also has the goal of playing in the Copa America on his mind, that will start next June.

He was called up by Tite just before he was injured but was unable to feature for his side. A dream that he still has pending and that he wants to fulfill over the coming weeks. He doesn't want to take his foot off the accelerator, he doesn't want to lower the level he showed before the injury.

In fact, two assistants to the Brazil coach will travel to the Santiago Bernabéu to see the striker in action against Villarreal, in what will be an ideal showcase to return to shine.

Brazil's squad list will be released on May 17, so Vinicius will only have this meeting and the Real Sociedad match to show Tite that he is more than capable of representing his country in the Copa America.
