Mourinho Defends Vinicius Amid Bernabéu Tensions

Madrid's new coach has made Vinicius a focus of his early messaging, addressing the incident from February when he questioned the Brazilian's goal celebration while at Benfica. 'Now he is my player, and I will defend him publicly,' Mourinho stated recently.

The Portuguese tactician admitted Vinicius can improve his relationship with opposing fans but claimed the winger suffers bullying from rivals and lacks protection from referees, adding another layer to the ongoing narrative surrounding the player's reception at the Bernabéu. h-doctor.club
