Fans spot ‘best agent in the world’ after Mbappe, Bellingham and Endrick are all persuaded to join Real Madrid
REAL MADRID have “the best agent in the world” helping secure their top transfers – and he happens to also play for them.
The LaLiga champions are fresh off unveiling Kylian Mbappe as the latest superstar to join Los Blancos.
It comes after Jude Bellingham and Endrick made similar moves.
What do they all have in common? Brazilian Vinicius Jr convinced them to sign.
Mbappe revealed: “The French players used to tell me [to come to Madrid] a lot.
“Vinicius also sent me messages: ‘Come to Madrid, we’ll score goals together’.
“I don’t need those messages to know that this is the best team in the world, but it’s a pleasure to feel loved.
“I’m looking forward to playing with the players. Vini, Bellingham… they’re great players, but they all are.
“I met some of my team-mates this morning. I’m very happy to be a Real Madrid player.”
Vinicius’ masterplan paid off but it is not the first time he has pulled the same trick.
How Kylian Mbappe’s incredible seven-year body transformation propelled skinny teen into world’s best player

KYLIAN MBAPPE has entered his physical prime as he has FINALLY rubber-stamped his free transfer move to Real Madrid.
The 25-year-old has grown from a boy to a man in Ligue 1, first with Monaco and then with current side Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappe debuted for Monaco as a skinny 16-year-old in 2015.
He even featured as a scrawny youngster against Tottenham at the old White Hart Lane that year, before fans realised what an icon he would become.
The following season, Mbappe really rose to superstardom as Monaco reached the Champions League semi-finals.
In a throwback snap shared earlier this week, an 18-year-old Mbappe could be seen chatting to a reporter after grabbing a Champions League brace against Borussia Dortmund in April 2017.

He said in 2023: “I sent many messages to Bellingham last year. I was texting almost every day and I was telling him: “Come to Madrid’.”
Endrick, 16, snubbed Chelsea, PSG and Barcelona thanks to the influence of you know who.
He told Marca: “Vinicius is a friend of mine. I was able to spend the holidays with him, I was able to see him and talk to him.
“He told me a lot of things about Real Madrid. He told me I’m going to be fine.
“It is a very good message knowing that it is the word of a player who is there and also Brazilian. By playing there he becomes an idol for me.
“It can become a mirror for many people. His word gave me even more strength to close it with Real Madrid.
“Before I went on vacation with him I had already closed it. So I arrived calmer. I talked to him, to the people there and I thank God for that.”
Vinicius has become one of Madrid’s most key players – but now fans are hailing him for his work off the pitch.
Kylian Mbappe ‘snaps up £15m mansion in Beckham’s old neighbourhood’ next door to Real Madrid legend and Hollywood star
By Gerard Couzens
KYLIAN MBAPPE has reportedly splashed out more than £15million on a mansion in Madrid.
The French superstar, whose drawn-out transfer to Real Madrid has finally being confirmed, is said to have finalised the purchase late last month.
Respected Spanish daily La Razon says the house he has bought is in the exclusive Madrid suburb of La Moraleja, where David Beckham spent most of his time living when he was in the Spanish capital.
And it says his neighbours will include former Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos and his stunning model wife Pilar Rubio as well as Hollywood star Richard Gere and his Spanish publicist wife Alejandra Silva.
La Razon said Mbappe had considered the gated estate of La Finca where Jude Bellingham lives and Cristiano Ronaldo still owns property as an option.
But it reported the 25-year-old, who threw an extravagant party for 250 guests at a stylish Italian restaurant a short walk from the Eiffel Tower, ended up opting for La Moraleja a 15-minute drive from Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training complex because it was “more comfortable.”
One said: “The best agent in the world.”
Another added: “He’s building his own super team.”
One gushed: “People don’t understand he’s our best agent, any good player we’re linked with he helps swindle their heads.”
Much has been made of what position Mbappe will play with Vinicius operating on the left-wing.
But Mbappe talked down any suggestion of rivalry with his new team-mate.
He said: “Vinicius is a unique player, a very great player. I will be very happy to play with him, as with all the other players.
“Great players know how to play together, I think. He has been incredible in recent seasons.
“It is up to me to adapt to the team. I will do it as quickly as possible to help the team win.”
