Vinicius Jr. has become the latest soccer star to join Jay-Z's Roc Nation Sports after the company acquired the Brazilian TFM Agency.

And the pair now join a star-studded roster at Roc Nation including fellow footballers Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne, as well as Saquon Barkley and LaMelo Ball across other sports.
