Vinicius Jr's remarkable performances at Real Madrid have put him forward to win Ballon d'Or.
Vinicius Jr’s remarkable performances at Real Madrid have put the 24-year-old forward as the odds-on favourite to claim his first Ballon d’Or when the award for the best player in the world is announced in Paris this Monday.
Bookmakers backed Vinicius to win the award ahead of Spain and Manchester City midfielder Rodri and Englishman Jude Bellingham. This will be the first time since 2003 in which neither Messi nor Ronaldo made the final 30-man list of nominees. Bellingham was named LaLiga MVP after scoring a career best 19 goals in a sparkling debut campaign and helping England reach the Euro 2024 final.
