Rodri triumphs on Ballon D or - Real Madrid angry about boycott!

Paris, Frankreich - Rodri from Manchester City was named world footballer in 2023 and received the coveted balloon d’Or for his outstanding achievements, including the profit of the European Championship with Spain. The 28-year-old prevailed against Real Madrid star Vinicius, who was empty after controversial discussions. Real Madrid expressed outraged reactions because they considered Vinicius to the actual award winner, which led to the immediate cancellation of a planned journey of 50 people. A club representative said: "The balloon d’Or no longer exists for us."

The boycott of Real Madrid and Vinicius marked a deep break, since other top players like Jude Bellingham and Granit Xhaka were also nominated. The reactions from Madrid indicate a possible influence of the UEFA, which is suspected as a possible cause of Vinicius' non -distinguishing. In the further competition history, Aitana Bonmati received the Ballon d’Or Féminin and Lamine Yamal was honored as the best young player. In the meantime, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona were named as the teams of the year. Further details on this explosive football event are to read here .
