Russian coach Igor Shalimov stated on Match TV that Real Madrid should sell Vinicius Junior during the summer transfer window.
After Real Madrid’s 2-0 away loss to Barcelona in La Liga’s 35th round, Shalimov shared his recommendations.
“Real Madrid need to let go of either Mbappé or Vinicius. Vinicius should be the one to leave. The team must sign a powerful center-forward—that’s Erling Haaland. On the right wing, they should bring in Michael Olise from Bayern Munich. That would fix everything,” Shalimov said on the program “All on Match!” aired by Match TV.
With 77 points from 35 matches, Real Madrid sits second in the league standings. Three rounds before the season’s end, they have lost their title hopes, trailing Barcelona by 14 points.
