Alfredo Matilla and Hugo Cerezo of Relevo say that Vinicius Junior “planned a party” with his best friends that went on until dawn.
He found out that he wouldn’t win the Ballon d’Or after the party.
In fact, Vini Jr. was so sure he would win that he offered to give a Rolex watch to every Real Madrid player.
Rodri beat Vini Jr. on the very last day of the race. At first, most people thought the Brazilian would win the Ballon d’Or.
