Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al Nassr, has expressed his disappointment with the Ballon d’Or award, stating that it lacks credibility. Ronaldo’s comments come after Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr. was snubbed for the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.
Vinicius Jr. was the favorite to win the award after an impressive season with Real Madrid, scoring 25 goals and providing 12 assists in 40 games. He also won the Champions League, LaLiga, and Supercopa de España with Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Ronaldo believes that Vinicius Jr. deserved to win the award, but is not surprised by the outcome. The Portuguese superstar has been a vocal critic of the Ballon d’Or award in the past, and his latest comments will likely spark further debate.
The Ballon d’Or award has been criticized for its voting process and criteria, with many arguing that it is biased towards certain players and teams. Ronaldo’s comments will add fuel to the fire, and it remains to be seen how the award’s organizers will respond to his criticism.
