​Real Madrid megastar working to rediscover best form after slow start to new seasonVinicius Jr. is determined to rediscover his best form for Real Madrid after making a relatively slow start to the 2026/27 season.According to AS, the Brazilian is now focused on turning promising moments into the level of performances that have made him one of the club’s most important players.The forward has registered one goal and two assists across Real Madrid’s first four league matches so far, while also winning a penalty against Real Betis, which Kylian Mbappe missed. Understandably, his numbers are hardly alarming, but they fall short of the explosive standards Vinicius has established during his time in Madrid.Against Betis, he created what appeared to be another decisive moment when he assisted Carlos Espi, only for the goal to be ruled out for offside.As such, the early signs suggest that rather than struggling for confidence, Vinicius is now working to regain the form that previously helped drive Madrid towards major trophies.Vinicius looking to build momentumVinicius has developed a reputation at Real Madrid for producing his most influential football when the stakes are highest.Many of his strongest stretches have arrived during the second half of seasons, when title races and Champions League knockout ties begin to define the campaign.Vinicius has had a slow start to the new season.

We are ready for that; it’s our competition. Our first objective is to finish in the top eight. “This season is going to be different from the last two, and we are going to win it,” he said.Vinicius has a point to proveThe
