The Brazilian star Offers Sincere Sorry to Los Blancos Supporters

Vinicius Jr in action

The attacker has netted five goals in 10 domestic competition matches this season.

Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Jr has apologised to the fanbase for his conduct when taken off in Sunday's heated El Clasico triumph.

He was substituted in the second half and expressed his frustration by walking immediately to the dressing room.

He later returned to the sidelines and, after his club's narrow triumph, sought to engage Barça's youngster Yamal during unsavoury post-match incidents.

"Now I want to apologise to all the Real Madrid fans for my reaction when I was taken off in the big match," the player posted on his account.

"Just as I have said in person during today's session, I also want to express regret anew to my teammates, the organization, and the club president.

"At times fervor gets the better of me because I continuously aim to win and support my side. My winning mentality stems from the affection I feel for this club and each thing it stands for."

He joined Real from Flamengo in recent years for millions and has notched triple figures in more than 300 games.

But his career in the La Liga is uncertain with rumors in lately suggesting that the club would contemplate permitting the young star leave if they got a appropriate bid.

When he was replaced on the match day, cameras from coverage provider the platform captured him saying: "Again me! I'm exiting the club! It's wiser if I leave, I'm leaving."

In his new post on social media, he commented: "I promise to keep battling constantly for the benefit of the club, as I have acted since the very beginning."
