Growing up the 20-year-old has discussed playing with his “greatest heroes” in video game format, but now the prodigious attacker is enjoying his own pixelated progression, revealing he regularly selects himself when starting up a new game.<\/p>\n

He told UEFA’s official website<\/em><\/a>: “Arriving here and playing with my greatest heroes, who I used to watch on TV or while playing video games. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Now I can play <\/span>as myself, which I do a lot.”<\/p>\n

Vinicius then went on to reveal who he regularly pits his wits against on FIFA — and who the best players are at the club.<\/p>\n

He added: “I play a lot against Rodrygo and [Eder] Militao, who I\u2019m closest to; we\u2019re always playing. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Who is the best FIFA player at Madrid? I think it\u2019s [Marcos] Asensio and [Dani] Carvajal: they’re good.”<\/span><\/p>\n

It hasn\u2019t been an easy transition for the Rio de Janeiro-born star, relocating from Flamengo to Los Blancos<\/em> in 2018 as an unheralded teenager with a huge price tag above his head, but Vinicius is now coming into his own across the Atlantic and relishing La Liga\u2019s limelight.<\/p>\n

He continued: “Facing these changes when you are [just 18] is something good and bad at the same time.<\/p>\n

“It is good because you have more time to learn things and play during several years in Europe, but you also face the fear and insecurity of playing for the greatest club in the world and doing things right.<\/p>\n

“I was very young when I came to a new country, and I had to change my habits both on and off the pitch to get used to another football culture, which is completely different from Brazil.”<\/p>\n
