The Brazilian teenager may be struggling for goals on the pitch but seems to be having no problems scoring off it

REAL MADRID'S Brazilian wonderkid Vinicius Jr is apparently dating a curvy social media influencer after eagle-eyed users noticed the same bathroom in their snaps.
According to reports, the 18-year-old forward has fallen for the stunning Maria Julia Mazali, who commands an army of 460,000 Instagram followers and more than 82,000 YouTube subscribers.
Brazilian reporters sniffed out the blossoming affair when the same bathroom was spotted in their social media posts.
In one photo of Vinicius Jr taking a selfie in the bathroom mirror, a white radiator is seen near two blue towels hanging by the bathtub.
Meanwhile, in a snap shared on social media by Mazali, the beauty is pictured standing near what appears to be the same radiator, blue towels and bathtub.
Three months ago, Vincius Jr stated that he was single and happy that way, but now it is believed he wants to spend as much time as possible with his new Brazilian babe.
However, the Real Madrid star has yet to confirm the rumours for his 6.1million Instagram fans while Mazali has not officially joined the ranks of Spanish football’s famous WAG community.
It is yet to be seen whether the intense media speculation will prompt the teenage striker to come clean on his rumoured relationship with gorgeous Mazali.
But the fact that they follow each other on Instagram adds further weight to the rumours.
Although Vinicius seems to be having no trouble scoring off the pitch but goals have been hard to come by on it.
He has netted just three goals for the Real Madrid first team since his rapid promotion from the Castilla B team.
The teenager moved to Madrid last summer once he turned 18, with Los Blancos paying Flamengo £38m for the winger.
But despite showing glimpses of what the Bernabeu faithful can expect in years to come, Vinicius has not quite hit the heights he - and plenty of supporters - may have anticipated just yet.
He has not played since limping off 35 minutes into Real Madrid's 4-1 home defeat to Ajax on March 5.
The star is set to be out of action for two months after suffering ankle ligament damage.
