Real Madrid signing Vinicius Junior: There's something I can teach Ronaldo

Flamengo starlet Vinicius Junior admits he can't wait to play with Real Madrid ace Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 17 year-old striker is set to join Real officially this summer, having signed for the Spanish giants in January 2017.

Asked about his situation, Vinicius told Segue o Baile: "When Cristiano Ronaldo scored his goal against Juventus, I thought that one day I will play with one of the best players of all time.

"I imagined myself celebrating a goal with him. When I have won his trust, I will teach him a step of funk!"

Vinicius will move to Madrid as the richest teenage transfer - €45m - in the game.
