A Real Madrid star has issued a warning to teammate Vinicius Junior after his recent behaviour on the pitch.
The Brazilian forward was criticised for his actions in the draw with RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League recently, as he was lucky not to be sent off for an off-the-ball incident.
Los Blancos striker Joselu has now warned Vinicius that while he is very talented, he needs to control his gestures on the field.

"Vini is a peculiar boy. Inside the locker room he is a very humble boy, very smiley. He is a boy who, from day one, has treated me very well since I arrived here. He is so decisive, such a good player, one of the best players in the world and I think that bothers rivals and the fans," Joselu told El Desmarque.
“It is clear that there are gestures that he can improve, but he is very young and we are all supporting him. There will be times when he has to decide how to carry out and deal with those gestures and those things, but he is a spectacular boy.
“In the locker room we all have a lot of affection for him and little by little it's going to bring out the positive side of him in all of this."
The forward then offered some advice to his team-mate: "The typical thing, especially when you are in a match: 'Don't leave us with ten.'
"I think he is such a decisive and decisive player in every game, that he knows it. He knows that he can decide a match alone and I think he is very fundamental for us."
