Real Madrid's winger Offers Regret to Real Madrid Fans

Vinicius Jr in action

The forward has scored five finishes in 10 domestic competition outings this season.

Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr has said sorry to fans for his conduct when taken off in Sunday's intense El Clasico triumph.

The Brazilian was replaced in the 72nd minute and expressed his frustration by going straight to the dressing room.

The Brazilian later returned to the dugout and, following his side's 2-1 win, sought to engage Barcelona's Lamine Yamal during contentious final whistle exchanges.

"This day I want to express regret to all the Real Madrid fans for my reaction when I was taken off in the Clasico," he wrote on his account.

"In the same way as I have already done during this morning's session, I wish to express regret anew to my teammates, the club, and the club president.

"Sometimes emotion takes over me because I always want to succeed and help my side. My competitive character comes from the passion I hold for this institution and all it stands for."

The player signed for Madrid from Flamengo in recent years for millions and has notched triple figures in numerous matches.

But his career in the La Liga is far from certain with reports in lately stating that the club would consider allowing the player depart if they obtained a appropriate bid.

When he was taken off on that day, TV coverage from coverage provider the service captured him stating: "It's always me! I'm leaving the team! It's better if I depart, I'm leaving."

In his most recent post on social media, he said: "I promise to keep battling every second for the good of Los Blancos, as I have acted since the very beginning."
