José Mourinho believes Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr will produce his best form when he starts scoring more goals.
The Portuguese manager acknowledged the Brazilian’s contributions through assists and his work rate but said goals remained an important part of his game.
‘There is another Vini Jr who eliminated us with Benfica last season, with incredibly good performances in which he scored,’ Mourinho said.
Mourinho added that Vinicius could produce even better performances by combining his creativity and hard work with regular goals.
The comments came as Vinicius continues to play a key role for Real Madrid, with Mourinho challenging the Brazilian to rediscover his scoring form.
