Real Madrid ace Vinicius, 24, is investing £2.6million to convert a closed school into a social centre in the Sau Goncalo neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro he grew up in.

The project will provide education, sport and cultural activities to 5,000 people for FREE.

It is being run by his Vini Junior Institute, which manages the superstar’s charitable projects.

The school, which has been closed for a decade, will now improve the lives of local residents.

Vinicius is the favourite to lift the Ballon d’Or later this year after inspiring Real to a LaLiga-Champions League double.

He could line up alongside Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham, in a formidable trio this season.

Los Blancos get their campaign underway against Mallorca tonight.

But according to ESPN, a staggering package is being put together to try and lure him to Saudi Arabia.
