Benzema is my idol, it's an honor to play with him - Vinicius

Vinicius displayed his respect to

for supporting him compassionately at the point when he first came to Real Madrid, describing the attacker as his hero.   

In May 2017,

paid for Vinicius an estimated EUR 45 million, with the player leaving

when he turned 18. 

Vinicius has now featured 72 times, yet regardless of his attracting professional playing style, the Brazilian has challenged for stability. 

He began the 2020-21 season in a spectacular manner, but in the 1-0 victory against Real Valladolid, he scored the winner before netting the opener in a 2-0 victory at Levante. 

He netted for the first time in successive La Liga games, with promising signs that the 20-year-old is starting to find some consistency in the frontline alongside his idol.

And Vinicius considers Benzema especially favorably for what he has done to date throughout his career throughout Madrid. 

"Karim is a hero, and playing with him is a pleasure," Vinicius told RMTV. We still speak to each other about my performance. 

"He didn't know me when I came, yet he always continued to support me. He helped, and he keeps doing so now, reminding me to be patient and helping me make the right decision. 

"To work with him and with all the footballers who are playing on my side is a blessing. With everyone, I enjoy the benefits of all the opportunities and I care a lot as they support. "They understand I learn a lot from the relationship." 

Similarities with Robinho were reasonable when Vinicius first entered Madrid. Dazzling moves were a common phenomenon and in the attacking line, he frequently missed assertiveness. He thinks, though, that he has now evolved and that he is a great young footballer. He said," I came at the age of 18 and just practiced in

, so everything has been new to me. 

"I've been improving and I'm still doing that to strengthen Madrid. I'm another competitor today. Our fans are helping me so that I can succeed now and in the future. 

"I am very healthy, very pleased with my time, however with the team as well. We have to proceed like this, enhancing the stuff we don't do in this different campaign because we just had a friendly match and it's hard to begin.
