Casemiro says Vinicius Junior should start thinking big and aim for Ballon d'Or

Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro spoke about his teammate Vinicius Junior, Business Insider reported.

“Vinicius has a very good head and, in the past year, he has surprised many people with the football he played. It is not normal for a 19-year-old boy to do what he did with the Real Madrid shirt. I told him the other day that this year is a year that he has to start thinking big,” Goal.com quoted Casemiro as saying. ‘I repeat: what he did last year was not normal. He surprised everyone and showed that he is ready to be a starter at Real Madrid. When you are a starting Real Madrid player, you have to think big. Think of the Ballon d'Or, FIFA's World XI. He is a great player and he has already proven it.”

Vinicius has been playing for Real Madrid since 2018 and he has made 21 appearances with the Whites.
