‘I would vote for Carvajal 2nd in the Ballon d’Or and Vinicius for 3rd’

The Ballon d’Or 2024 award caused a football division since Rodri was the winner by gathering the most preferences in the journalists’ vote and Vinicius who was considered by many as the… wronged of the case having the tag of the favorite to win the title.

For his part, however, the English champion with Manchester City and national European champion with Spain, Rodri, does not see things that way and he made sure to show it through an interview on the Spanish radio show.El Partidazo de Cope”.

There he was asked to give his opinion on this year’s awards and essentially threw down the gauntlet to Real’s Brazilian striker after claiming that after himself, Vinicius would not be his first choice for the award.

“I would vote Dani Carvajal for 2nd place and Vinicius for 3rd”, emphasized the 28-year-old Citizens midfielder, who hinted that he will do everything to return to action as soon as possible after the serious injury he suffered in the derby against Arsenal at the start of the season.

“I feel like I will be able to return to action in the season. It is possible and I can make it happen. At the moment I am in recovery mode, there is no pressure.

The important thing is to do the restoration in the best way. The season is long and there is also the Club World Cup. I can do it,” he said characteristically.
