On October 30, Rodri said that he received a congratulatory call from Carvajal after winning the Ballon d’Or.
Rodri also became the first Premier League player to win the Ballon d’Or since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008. Real Madrid was highly dissatisfied with this result, and the entire team refused to attend the Ballon d’Or ceremony.
Rodri revealed that Carvajal congratulated him afterward: “After I won the Ballon d’Or, I received a congratulatory call from Carvajal. He was happy for me to win the Ballon d’Or. I think Carvajal also deserves the Ballon d’Or. He shares the same values as me; we both value teamwork and love our respective clubs, willing to give our all for our teams. We have many things in common, and our experiences with injuries have made us even more united.”
In the 2023-24 season, Rodri, as a key player, helped Manchester City win the Premier League title and assisted Spain in winning the European Championship, earning him the title of Best Player at the European Championship and ultimately securing the Ballon d’Or.
