The match against Sevilla was a difficult night for Vinicius. Substituted late on, the winger left the Santiago Bernabéu to loud and unmistakable boos from the stands. His lack of attacking influence and questionable defensive commitment tested the patience of a demanding crowd that rarely settles for half measures.
As he made his way off the pitch to be replaced by Gonzalo García, Vinicius showed visible frustration, a reflection of the tense atmosphere surrounding him. Inside the dressing room, however, the Brazilian continues to have strong backing and influential allies. One of them is Eduardo Camavinga, who felt compelled to address the situation publicly.
During the broadcast, Movistar+ aired footage that seemed to show Camavinga scolding Vinicius after a defensive lapse, with the French midfielder reportedly saying, “If you don’t move, you’ll lose the ball.” The sequence also captured Jude Bellingham attempting to calm tensions as Sevilla pressed high.
The clip did not sit well within the Real Madrid camp, who felt it misrepresented what actually happened on the pitch. As a result, Camavinga took to social media to clarify the matter. “Leave him alone. I wasn’t talking about him,” he wrote on X, firmly denying any criticism of Vinicius and reinforcing the message of unity within the squad. Despite the recent spotlight on the Brazilian, the dressing room remains firmly behind him.
