Despite being
at Real Madrid for
less than a year, Vinicius Jr has
worked under three different coaches.
Julen Lopetegui, Santiago Solari and Zinedine Zidane have
all had an impact on the young Brazilian in various ways.
When asked about if he felt down when Lopetegui left the club, the youngster
admitted he was sad about the situation
"Yes, because he helped a lot in pre-season
and he (Lopetegui) was my first coach in Europe,".
Under Solari was
when Vinicius began
to show his real quality, something he is the first to acknowledge.
"Solari gave me the chance to play, to do
my job and I have a bigger affection for him," Vinicius said.
"He told me that, due to playing well at Castilla, I would play in the first team.
"Later, When I arrived in the first team,
he gave me the chance that he promised," he stated.
With Zidane having
only just rejoined the club, the teenager has yet to have the chance to create
a particular bond with the Frenchman but is positive about h
"I've watched videos of Zidane as a player and he was
incredible.
"Casemiro told me that, when Zidane spoke, he would get a bit
nervous.
"It is quite different how Zidane speaks compared to Solari. He is a legend, he won everything
and he is special.
"To me, he said to be calm about the injury
in order to return stronger," he said.
