Real Madrid Furious Over Vinicius Jr’s Reported Ballon d’Or Loss to Rodri

Vinicius Jr 2

Citing a lack of appreciation for Vinicius Jr.’s accomplishments, the club protests the award decision.
After finding out that Manchester City midfielder Rodri would likely receive the 2024 award in lieu of Vinicius Jr., Real Madrid reportedly decided to skip the Ballon d’Or presentation. The Spanish team is upset by this announcement since they believe Vinicius’s efforts to Real Madrid’s La Liga and Champions League triumphs deserved the highest award.

According to an anonymous Real Madrid insider who spoke to AS about the ruling:

“Carvajal must be declared the winner if the award’s criteria do not declare Vinicius the winner.”

It is clear that UEFA and the Ballon d’Or do not appreciate Real Madrid because this has not been the case. Furthermore, it is revered at Real Madrid.

The club’s reaction is a reflection of their long-standing dissatisfaction with UEFA and the Ballon d’Or selection procedure, as Madrid supporters and officials believe Vinicius should have won the coveted award for his exceptional season. This criticism could exacerbate ongoing discussions regarding the award’s transparency and the selection criteria as the Ballon d’Or announcement approaches.
