Recently, the matter of Vinicius Jr. receiving an offer from Saudi Arabia has come to the fore. Vinicius also reported that the offer was turned down.
The Saudi government’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) has offered Vinicius 6 billion Brazilian reals ($1 billion) to play for Pro League club Al Ahly. That would also make Vinny the highest paid athlete in history.
This money offer for the Brazilian winger is quite eye-opening. The Brazilian media “O Globo” also gave an interesting list of what Vinicius can buy in exchange for this money. Where the world’s most expensive motorcar is also included. It is said that with the money that Al Ahli wants to pay Vinny, he can buy 7 of the most expensive cars in a year.
On average, according to the proposed contract, Vini will earn 38 Brazilian reals per second. In terms of minutes, it is 2.29 thousand Brazilian reals, taking into account every week, this figure stands at 2 million 50 million Brazilian reals and 1 million 20 thousand reals per year. In total for 5 years that would be 6 billion Brazilian Reals or 1 billion US dollars.
The question is, Vinicius can buy seven cars of any brand every year? This car is not Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche. The most expensive car is the Rolls Royce La Rose Noire Droptail. Which is considered to be the most expensive car in the world right now, costing $30 million.
And it is made in very limited numbers. Now if Vinicius accepts Saudi Arabia’s offer, it will take him about a month and a half to buy a car of this brand. And if you calculate the entire year, Vinicius can buy 7 of these cars.
After the car, let’s talk about the house. Last month, the most expensive mansion in Brazil was sold to a contractor company. The luxury house cost 220 million Brazilian reals (4 million US dollars). Now it will take a little over two months for Vinicius to buy this house with the money Al Ahli offered.
“O Globo” then brought up the topic of private aircraft. In this case, Bombardier Global 7500 is considered to be the most expensive of the planes that fly in the air of Brazil. The price of this aircraft, built in 2021, is 37.6 million riyals (7.3 million US dollars) in Brazilian currency. It will take less than 4 months for Vinicius to buy this 15-seat aircraft with the money proposed by Al Ahli.
