Chelsea’s ambitious pursuit of Vinicius Junior appears to have hit a definitive roadblock.
Despite reports of a record-breaking £130 million offer from the Blues, the Brazilian superstar has reportedly informed Real Madrid that he has "no intention" of leaving the Bernabeu under any circumstances this month.
While Vinicius has faced a turbulent season under Xabi Alonso, he remains committed to the Spanish giants.
This development leaves Chelsea and Liam Rosenior searching for alternative "statement" signings to revitalize a squad currently languishing in the bottom half of the table.
