VIDEO: Vinicius Jr's Flamengo career

Vinicius Jr kicked off his professional football career at Flamengo in 2017. He spent a one year spell at the club (2017-18), before being bought by Real Madrid.

He played in a total of 69 matches for the Brazilian outfit, and the winger started 29 of them. Across these appearances, he scored 14 goals and made four assists. Take a look at his best bits in a Flamengo shirt in the video here!

Real Madrid signed Vini when he was just 18 years old. He became the second most expensive player in Brazilian football history (Neymar is the most expensive) after Madrid paid 46 million euros for his signature.
