Vinicius, finds himself in a precarious position at Real Madrid, with the club reportedly unwilling to make him their highest earner alongside Kylian Mbappe as contract negotiations stall.
The 25-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia for the past year but as so far resisted the mountain of cash he’s been offered, but that could soon change according to Planes.
“I don't rule it out,” Planes, formerly the technical secretary at Barcelona, told MARCA.
“I think it's part of the idea and plan to be one of the most powerful leagues in the world. The World Cup has been a good test for the Saudi league. Within that plan, to allow players to come at an important point in their careers, Vinícius could be included.
“He has everything in his favor. If you analyze the profile of the player who comes, even in our team, last summer we made a lot of moves and were market shakers.
“Players like Steven Bergwijn, (Houssem) Aouar, Moussa Diaby are coming. Players who are 25, 26, 27 years old, in good moments of their careers. Plus, the youngsters we're banking on, like Unai Hernández or Mario Mitaj.
“I don’t rule it out at all…and Vinícius certainly has all the conditions to join this league.”
