Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is critical of Real Madrid's deal for Vinicius Junior.

Real announced on Monday the signing of the Flamengo whizkid.

Guardiola commented: "Real Madrid have bought a 16-year-old player for 46 million euros, and you can imagine how the market is.

"Maybe we'll have a lot of players here, maybe not ... we'll see in the next few days."

With the media astounded by the example, Pep reiterated it.

"A Brazilian boy is going to play at Real Madrid for 46 million euros - 16 years old - that's the market today," he concluded.
