Real Madrid have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Vinicius Jr when he turns 18 on July 12, 2018, with the deal costing them 61 million Euro in total.

据报道，皇家马德里俱乐部已经同意在2018年7月12日维尼修斯年满18岁时签下他，这将总共花费他们6100万欧元。

The 16-year-old has attracted significant attention with his performances for Flamengo, with Barcelona also emerging as an interested party.

这位16岁的少年在弗拉门戈队的表现引起了相当大的关注，巴塞罗那同样展现出极强的兴趣。

However, as reported by Globoesporte, the talented teenager has opted¹ to join Madrid with president Florentino Perez's financial power making the difference.

不过，根据《环球体育》报道，由于皇马主席弗洛伦蒂诺·佩雷斯给出的报价与众不同，所以最终这位天才少年已经选择加入马德里。

It's a massive investment and frankly² a huge gamble for Madrid, as that is a vast amount of money to spend on a player who has gone nowhere near proving himself at the highest level to warrant such a fee or expectation.

这对皇马来说是一笔高额投资，老实说，也是一次巨大的赌博，因为这是把大量的资金花在一名运动员身上，而他还完全没有在最高等级赛场上的证明过自己配得上这个价格和期待。

Nevertheless, the club hierarchy³ must surely feel comfortable in the knowledge that he will continue to develop into a top-class player, and they will undoubtedly⁴ be keeping a close eye on him over the next two years to see how he progresses.

不过，在了解到他将会继续向着顶级运动员努力，该俱乐部的高层肯定会非常欣慰。而且毋庸置疑，他们会在接下来的两年里密切关注维尼修斯将如何进步。

Vicinius Jr has won a number of trophies⁵ at youth level for both club and country while scoring 17 goals in 19 games for the Brazil U17s, and so in fairness the early signs are certainly promising⁶.

维尼修斯在为巴西17岁以下足球队的19场比赛里打入17粒进球，并且已经为俱乐部和国家在青少年级别的比赛中赢下了很多奖杯，所以公平地讲，这笔提前签约肯定是被看好的。
