Clarence Seedorf Says Real Madrid Must Protect Vinicius Junior's Development

Former Real Madrid star Clarence Seedorf has said Los Blancos must do their best to support the long-term development of Vinicius Junior.

The Cameroon manager, who featured in a Madrid shirt for four years, said the youngster is a special talent, but Real must not overload the attacker in his earliest days at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

According to Alberto Pinero of Goal, the Dutchman heeded a warning to his former team:

"Vinicius is doing a very good job. You cannot leave the pressure and responsibility on young people in general.
