Real Madrid’s head coach Carlo Ancelotti stated on Wednesday night that he believed one of his team’s key players would take home the Ballon d’Or next year.

That specific player? Juan Vinícius Jr.

Conversely, wide player Vinícius just performed flawlessly once more on the grandest platform.

His team appeared to be lacking in creativity in the attacking third during the second leg of their Champions League semi-final matchup with Bayern Munich. However, the Brazilian grabbed control of the match and created numerous opportunities from his left wing position.

Although Vinícius did not score on that particular night, he was the driving force behind his team’s success and their progression to yet another European final.

Carlo Ancelotti, the gentleman mentioned previously, also appreciated that immensely.

Following the match at Santiago Bernabéu, Ancelotti was addressing the media on the performance of his star striker.

Taking advantage of the occasion, the Real Madrid manager listed Vinícius as the player who should be voted the finest player in world football:

“Vinícius has a good chance of winning the Ballon d’Or.”
