With a new LaLiga season underway, several Brazilian players are once again making their mark in Spain’s top football division. Rivaldo, who left a lasting legacy in the league while wearing Barcelona’s colors, recently shared his thoughts on the current situations of some of his fellow Brazilians.
“’Vini’ needs to stay at Real Madrid for now. The time will come to consider a move to Saudi Arabia, but in my opinion, that time hasn’t arrived yet. He should remain here. He still has a lot to offer, both to Real Madrid and the Brazilian national team,” Rivaldo told Betfair.

Rivaldo’s take on Vinicius and Endrick at Real Madrid
Vinicius Junior, a key figure at Real Madrid, has been the subject of much discussion recently due to a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia. According to Rivaldo, the player who was instrumental in Real Madrid’s last campaign should continue making history at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Endrick, another Brazilian who aims to represent his country well at Real Madrid, joined the Blancos this summer from Palmeiras. The 18-year-old forward is highly anticipated, though Carlo Ancelotti seems to be integrating him gradually.
“He just needs to stay calm and wait for the right moment. He will have plenty of opportunities to play alongside Mbappé, Vinicius, and Rodrygo, who are the stars of this Real Madrid. He’s very young and still has a lot to learn, and he’s at a great club,” Rivaldo remarked.
Vitor Roque’s uncertain future at Barcelona
The former Barcelona star also shared his perspective on Vitor Roque, who is facing a challenging time in Catalonia. Despite arriving as a promising talent in January, it seems “Tigrinho” may not have much time left with the Blaugrana.
“They evaluated him and aren’t satisfied, despite the short time he’s been at the club, so they’re looking for an exit, which will be the best for him. I hope he can prove elsewhere that he is a great player,” Rivaldo commented.
