Brazil – France: Vinicius promises hell to Mbappé’s Blues
Vinicius Junior is ready to assert himself as the Seleção’s attacking leader as the 2026 World Cup approaches, as Brazil faces France this Thursday evening at Gillette Stadium in a friendly.
Impressive at club level this season, Vinícius Júnior approaches the clash between Brazil and France in a friendly this Thursday evening in sparkling form. The Real Madrid winger, with 17 goals and 9 assists this season, is on a good run with 10 goals in his last 11 matches. A momentum confirmed by his recent braces against Manchester City and Atlético Madrid.
Without getting carried away, the Brazilian insists on collective work, also praised by his coach Álvaro Arbeloa. A few months before the 2026 World Cup, he is establishing himself as the Seleção’s attacking leader, still in search of certainties, now led by Carlo Ancelotti, who does not hide his admiration. The clash against the Blues promises to be explosive, especially with the reunion with Kylian Mbappé.
“There is no such thing as a friendly match,” warns Vinícius, determined to maintain this momentum. More than just a test, this fixture appears to be a bellwether. In full confidence, the Madrid-born forward aims to confirm his status and land a big blow ahead of the World Cup.
