Vinicius Junior has shared a picture of himself with Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Pele, and Muhammad Ali on social media.

The memorable celebration that Ali had after defeating Sonny Liston and Pele’s celebration after Brazil won the 1970 World Cup are depicted in the tattoo on Vinicius’s back.

The NBA is also honored in the Brazilian international’s tattoo, which features both Bryant and Jordan on his back.

Vinicius added the phrases “mentality” and “black lives matter” following ten instances of racist taunts inside a Spanish football stadium.

According to reports, the tattoo took eight hours to create. On his social media profile, LA-based tattoo artist GANGA disclosed every aspect of the artwork.

With the comment, “It’s been great to end 2023 with this incredible full back tattoo done in 8 hours for my bro Vinicius, always with my team,” Ganga posted a video of himself working on Vinicius’s back.

At the Boston Celtics Christmas game, Vinicius was spotted hanging out with LeBron James, demonstrating how much he was enjoying his time off.

Earlier this year, Vinicius inked a new four-year contract with La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid. The Brazil international will remain at the Santiago Bernabeu until June 2027 thanks to the contract extension.

At the age of 18, Vinicius made his debut with Los Blancos in 2018. Since then, he has made 235 appearances, scored 63 goals, and won nine major trophies, including two LaLiga crowns.

In the 2022 Champions League final, Real defeated Liverpool with a goal from the 23-year-old to win a record 14 European Cups.

Racist taunts have, however, clouded the Brazilian’s LaLiga tenure. He was allegedly subjected to racist taunts after he was replaced during Saturday’s injury time in Real Madrid’s 2-1 victory over Barcelona.
