Four days after the France Football 2024 Ballon d’Or was awarded to Rodri, the debate continues. If some believe that the Manchester City midfielder deserved this distinction, others believe that Vinícius Júnior – who did not appear at the ceremony in Paris, just like the Real Madrid delegation – deserved more to win this trophy. Asked by RAC1 on this Ballon d’Or, Pau Cubarsí sides with his Spanish compatriot.
“ It was very evenly matched between him and Vinicius, but it’s a good thing a Spaniard won it. I wasn’t surprised that Vinicius didn’t win, it was very balanced “, indicated the FC Barcelona defender in comments relayed by Sportwho came fifth in the Kopa trophy, rewarding the best player under the age of 21.
