In addition to Vinicius José Paixão de Oliveira Júnior, better known as Vinícius Júnior or Vini Jr, who is making waves at Real Madrid in Spain, there is another Brazilian with the same name in the Betplay-2 league who is crucial in Huila’s current season was. . . .
In 2021, Marcus Vinicius signed a three-year contract with Independiente Santa Fe and was one of the Cardinal team’s key hires. However, he had no chances and was loaned out to other Colombian football teams.
The player’s entry into the Cardinal team was an important step in Bahraini football. He was born in São Paulo and played in his country with Gremio Prudente in the Paulista Second Division Championship. He was subsequently contacted by Middle Eastern club Busaiteen.
With this team he played two seasons in which he stood out in attack and scored a total of 6 goals, 5 per league and 1 per cup. His great performance led to him becoming part of the Bahrain national team, where he stood out.
Therefore, expectation was high when he arrived in Santa Fe, where the lack of opportunities and low exposure during the season led him to be loaned out to Tigres FC, a Bogotá team from the second division.
During his stay in the Cats team, Vinicius played 25 games and scored 4 goals, which again attracted the interest of several first division clubs.
In January 2023, the Brazilian winger completed his loan move to Atlético Huila, where he gained greater continuity and was able to develop his best football, becoming one of the main figures of the current league.
Thanks to his good performances, the Brazilian achieved his best price on the market: 450,000 euros, the highest value of his career according to Transfermarkt.
The future of this experienced winger is uncertain as he has attracted interest from major clubs in Colombia that would have him in their portfolio next semester, such as Atlético Nacional, Millonarios, América de Cali and Independiente Santa Fe the holder of his sports rights.
So we have to wait and see what the 26-year-old’s sporting future will look like next season.
