Problems between UEFA, Real Madrid – Seedorf on why Vinicius wasn’t awarded the Ballon d’Or

Date:

Former Netherlands midfielder, Clarence Seedorf, has hinted that problems between UEFA and Real Madrid led to Vinicius Junior missing out on the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.

Vinicius Jr was the heavy favourite to win the prize, but a late twist saw Real cancel their flight to the ceremony, after they learned that the 24-year-old will not win it.

Instead, Manchester City’s Rodri was crowned the best player in the world.

But speaking at the event, Seedorf said: “Vini Jr. deserves to keep this award.

“I think problems between Real Madrid and UEFA should be kept separated from an award the player deserves.

“It’s a shame.”
