Real Madrid Star Vinicius Jr Speaks Out After Being Snubbed at Ballon d’Or

Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior has addressed his decision to boycott this year’s Ballon d’Or.

Following the announcement that Manchester City’s Rodri was selected as the award winner, Vinicius and the club opted not to attend the ceremony at the Théâtre du Châtelet.

Real Madrid Star Vinicius Jr Speaks Out After Being Snubbed at Ballon d'Or

The Spanish giants had anticipated that if their Brazilian forward wasn’t recognized, right-back Dani Carvajal might receive the award after his successes in La Liga, the Champions League, and the Euros.

However, when it was revealed today that Rodri was the actual winner, Real Madrid reacted with anger, prohibiting club representatives from attending the event.

Now, just minutes after an emotional Rodri accepted the award for his contributions to Spain’s Euro 2024 victory and his club’s fourth consecutive Premier League title, Vinicius has finally spoken out.

‘I’ll do it 10x if I have to. They’re not ready,’ he posted on X, hinting at future successes.

Vinicius was a strong contender for the 2024 Ballon d’Or due to his impressive performance in leading Madrid’s attack to a La Liga-UEFA Champions League double.

The 24-year-old Brazilian scored six goals and provided four assists in ten Champions League matches, while contributing to 20 goals in 26 La Liga appearances.

‘If the criteria of the award do not proclaim Vinicius the winner, those same criteria must proclaim Carvajal the winner,’ the club stated earlier today.

‘Since this has not been the case, it is obvious that the Ballon d’Or and UEFA do not respect Real Madrid. And Real Madrid is not where it is not respected.’

On Monday, a meeting of EU foreign ministers reportedly approved a 16th package of sanctions against Russia while saying a swift casefire that favors Moscow will not be accepted. However, Hungary, whose leader Viktor Orban has remained close to Russian President Vladimir Putin and has persistently complicated EU efforts to support Ukraine, said it will not back further sanctions. The country’s Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto also said his country will not agree to a boost in EU military aid as US President Donald Trump continues his push to force Ukraine to agree to a peace deal with Russia. US officials met their Russian counterparts last week, while Trump and Zelenskyy have embarked on a bitter spat via the media, with the US leader accusing Kyiv of starting the war and questioning the Ukrainian president’s legitimacy. Trump’s peace plan, which appears designed to illustrate his self-appointed role as a global dealmaker, faces resistance on both sides. Russia said on Monday that the quick end to the war is “unacceptable”. A ceasefire without a long-term settlement “is the path to a swift resumption of fighting and a resumption of the conflict with even more serious consequences, including consequences for Russian-US relations,” Moscow’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said, according to the state-run RIA Novosti news agency. Meanwhile, Ukraine signalled on Sunday that a contentious proposal that would hand Washington $500bn worth of profits from Ukrainian rare minerals has now been taken off the table, and that talks on a different deal are progressing. Zelenskyy also told a forum in Kyiv that he would resign his post if that meant peace was achieved.
