Vinicius Jr. acknowledges 2022–2023 World Cup injury concerns

In the first few weeks of 2022–2023, Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior revealed his fear of suffering a World Cup-ending injury.

In Carlo Ancelotti’s plans as Los Blancos prepare to defend their La Liga and Champions League championships in 2023, the Brazilian international has continued to play a crucial role.

The 22-year-old has secured his spot in Tite’s squad after an impressive rise for club and country, having already scored 10 goals in domestic and European play this season.

Vini Jr. was the target of some rough tactics from opposition defenders in recent games, despite still being an ever-present for Real Madrid, prior to traveling to Qatar.
