Sell Vinicius, allow Mbappe play from left position – Milla advises Real Madrid

Former Real Madrid midfielder, Luis Milla has advised his old club to sell Vinicius Junior in the summer transfer window.

Milla also wants the Los Blancos to allow Kylian Mbappe to play from the left position in the attack for Carlo Ancelotti’s side.

According to him, Madrid should reinvest the funds from Vinicius’ sale and sign a new striker that would play alongside Mbappe in the attack.

Recall that Vinicius has been tipped with a blockbuster move to Saudi Arabia in recent weeks.

The Brazilian international joined the UEFA Champions League holders in the summer of 2018 from Flamengo.

This season, Vinicius has scored 18 goals and provided 13 assists in 41 games for Madrid.

However, Milla believes Madrid should cut ties with Vinicius.

Speaking in a recent interview with El Desmarque, Milla said (via Tribal Football):

“If I were a sporting director, I would sell Vinicius and buy a striker to allow Mbappe to play on the left wing. Vini is a great player, but the club must also consider the image he transmits.

“Yes, his performances are at a high level, but his image is not always the best. He has a significant market value and Real Madrid could reinvest that money in big purchases.”
