YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Ghanaian football personality King Ajor had urged Jose Mourinho to drop Vinicius Junior, arguing that Real Madrid’s attack looked sharper without the Brazilian in the starting line-up.

He also claimed Kylian Mbappe was more dangerous with Yan Diomande on the left flank, a change he believes has improved the team’s overall attacking rhythm.
