2024 Ballon D'Or Controversy
UPDATE: Sources have confirmed to Managing Madrid that Rodri will win the Ballon D'Or, and Vinicius Jr will not travel to Paris. In what has been a dramatic turn of events, Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Junior will miss out on the prestigious accolade tonight.
Club representatives, along with Vinicius and his entourage, were set to travel to Paris to receive the award but have decided against attending. This decision comes as Vinicius is poised to miss out on the honor, creating a wave of disappointment among fans.
Rodri's Rise to Stardom
If reports hold true, Manchester City’s Rodri seems to be the leading candidate for the award, especially after Spain emerged as the 2024 UEFA Euro champions with him as a vital player.
