Real Madrid ban Brazilian foward Vinicius Jr. from speaking
The teenager is currently playing for the club's B team in the third division
Real Madrid want to keep Brazilian starlet Vinicius Jr., who is starring in the B team, tied down. While Julen Lopetegui doesn't count on him in the first team, the forward has caused the club's reserve team games to be the most viewed on Real Madrid TV, even breaking viewing records.
According to a report in 'El Confidencial', Madrid, however, have banned Vinicius from talking after Castilla games. He's been gagged and the press don't have access to him. It's a measure of overprotection that the club have opted for. They have imposed a number of rules to prevent exterior pressure, despite the fact he's used to it following his time at Flamengo.
Another rule, according to the same report, is that he only plays games when Real Madrid feel there is no risk of the match becoming overly physical. He also has helpers assisting his adaption to Madrid and they help him with his bills etc. Madrid want him exclusively focused on football and to keep progressing.
