Earlier reports had surfaced of a meeting between Saudi representatives and Vinícius' agents, with a substantial offer being put forward to bring the winger to the Middle East.
However, Eduardo Piexoto, a spokesperson for the Brazilian international, moved quickly to clarify the situation in an exclusive interview with Saudi outlet Al Riyadiya.
"No discussions or contact from any Saudi club have taken place since August," he stated.
When pressed further on whether Vinícius might be open to joining the Saudi Pro League, Piexoto was tight-lipped, stating, "I cannot discuss that, especially as there are currently no offers."
His comments suggest that, for the time being, any potential deal is far from being on the table.
Real Madrid's own spokesperson, Juan Camilo, also declined to comment on the rumours, emphasising the club's stance of addressing all matters through official channels.
"We do not address such speculations," Camilo said.
"Everything goes through official channels."
Vinícius has been a key figure at Real Madrid since joining the club in 2018, quickly rising through the ranks to become one of their most influential players.
