This 2025 edition of the Ballon d'Or is definitely concerned. This Monday evening, France Football will unveil the names of the winners of the different trophies, including the famous Ballon d'Or. In all likelihood, this will be played between Ousmane Dembélé (PSG, France) and Lamine Yamal (FC Barcelona, ​​Spain). But the organizers of the event of the year have to face some problems. Indeed, after the postponement of the meeting between Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain for weather reasons, 6 Ile-de-France players and Luis Enrique will not be present at the Châtelet Theater this evening. They will not be absent. Like last year, Real Madrid decided to boycott the ceremony.

Real Madrid still does not digest

Indeed, the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium took the fact that Vinicius Junior is not sacred. The Madrid delegation, which had been warned by Manchester City that Rodri would be the winner, had not embarked on his plane at the last minute and had not made the trip to the French capital. The Merengues had not understood why the Brazilian had not won the trophy. They have still not seized why their player was deprived of this supreme title. Then they indicated that if we reached other criteria advanced by France FootballDani Carvajal could have been the lucky one. Unhappy, Casa Blanca had dropped: “The Ballon d'Or and UEFA do not respect Real Madrid … and Real Madrid is not where it is not respected.»»

A year later, therefore, Real Madrid still keeps this controversy across the throat and has not changed his mind. Again, the Liga stable will not be there. However, the Spanish press revealed that Vincent Garcia, the editor -in -chief of FF, went to the Iberian capital to try to round the angles. But he failed. This Monday, the Cadena Cope Ensures that Real Madrid will not send a representative in Paris. On the other hand, the Spanish stable leaves the players freedom to go there or not. Information that is also that of the newspaper ASwhich ensures that the dispute around Vinicius JR is still not resolved. Tonight, Real Madrid will not be institutionally represented in Paris.

The Merengues authorized the players to go there but …

President Florentino Pérez, like Emilio Butragueño, the director of institutional relations, will not be there. However, the club is well represented whether among women or male. AS Specifies however that the Madrilenians have left freedom to the players (Caroline Weir and Linda Caicedo) and the players (Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior, Thibaut Courtois and Dean Huijsen) to go to the Gala so of course they wish. Real Madrid could only be represented in women. Indeed, KM10 and his teammates will not go there since they play tomorrow evening against Levante en Liga. Passing through a press conference on Monday, Xabi Alonso was cooked on the subject.

Indeed, when a journalist asked him what he thinks of the fact that Real Madrid does not go to the gala this evening, he answered. “My head is turned towards Levante, each match is important.” Another journalist tried to know what he would think if Ousmane Dembélé were not to be crowned this evening. “We'll see … it's not my problem. I am not part of the jury. I didn't think about it much; I only think to be relieving. “ You will understand, Real Madrid is not really concerned with the Ballon d'Or and everything that will happen this evening in Paris. When the 30 nominees were announced, the Merengues had not shared the news on their social networks. Florentino Pérez and his teams have a hard tooth.
