Manchester City fans are hopeful that midfielder Rodri will win the Ballon d’Or this year, as he has performed exceptionally well for both club and country. Despite playing a key role in City’s success and winning Euro 2024 with Spain, Rodri is now likely to miss out on the prestigious award to Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior. The injury sustained by Rodri, which may sideline him for the rest of the season, has potentially affected his chances of winning the Ballon d’Or, leaving City fans disappointed.
Former City striker Sergio Aguero has surprisingly backed Vinicius for the award, stating that the Real Madrid player has been superior this season. However, many believe that Rodri deserves the accolade after his consistent performances and influence on the pitch. It would be a great shame if Rodri does not win the Ballon d’Or, as he has admitted it would be a dream come true for him, and fans believe he has done everything to deserve the recognition despite the competition from Vinicius.
