In response to his exclusion from the Ballon d’Or, VINICIUS JR has addressed the matter.
After losing out on the Ballon d’Or, Vinicius Jr. has spoken out.
Rodri took home the top honor.
The Real Madrid player finished second to Rodri of Manchester City, despite being a strong contender for the accolade.
Because Real Madrid boycotted the event, Vinicius was not present at the awards presentation.
But when Rodri accepted his prize, he broke his silence and warned the organizers.
On social media, he said, “If it takes ten times, I will do it.” They’re not ready.
After helping Real Madrid win the Champions League and La Liga the previous season, Vinicius Jr. was thought to have won the Ballon d’Or.
He contributed crucial goals during the Champions League knockout stages, including the final game, with 24 goals and 11 assists.
Nevertheless, Rodri, the top League and Euro champion, received the top honor instead of him.
In response, Real Madrid President Florentino Perez was outraged and chose not to attend the event.
This meant that Jude Bellingham, who finished third, and no other Real Madrid representatives were present at the ceremony in Paris.
An ugly scenario arose because there was no club representative present to accept the Club of the Year honor.
Carlo Ancelotti, the manager, was also not named Coach of the Year.
Harry Kane shared the Striker’s Prize with Kylian Mbappe, who took part in the Madrid boycott, while Emi Martinez of Aston Villa was named Keeper of the Year.
