Zidane Gives Vinicius Private Sessions Ahead Of Chelsea’s Champions League Tie

Brazil youngster Vinicius Jr has been under heavy criticism for his finishing this season and a report has emerged that Zinedine Zidane works with him to improve his game after team training sessions.

Zinedine Zidane has made Vinicius progress his own private mission as he started giving the youngster private coaching sessions, reports L’Equipe.

Although it’s unclear how long this has been going on, as the paper does not specify it, assume it is a trend of recent weeks, as Vinicius’ form and decision-making in the final third started to improve.

Meanwhile, that’s exactly what Zizou has been working on better calls from Vinicius in the opponent’s third. The extra time on the training ground bore fruit in last week’s 3-1 win over Liverpool where Vini scored a brace.
