On September 26, with one month left until the Ballon d’Or award ceremony on October 28, German football legend Lothar Matthaeus stated that in his opinion, the Ballon d’Or should go to Rodri, while Vinicius can only rank third.
Previously, according to a report by Marca, Real Madrid player Vinicius has been informed that he will beat competitors like Bellingham to win this year’s Ballon d’Or.
However, in an interview with the media, German football legend Lothar Matthaeus emphasized: “This does not surprise me. No matter who scores, Vinicius always receives more attention than others. With victories in the Champions League and La Liga, he has won important titles at Real Madrid, which justifies this award.”
“But personally, before this, I only see Vinicius ranking third in this year’s Ballon d’Or. In my opinion, Rodri deserves the Ballon d’Or more than Vinicius. He is the thinker and leader of the Euro Cup champion Spanish team and also won the Premier League title with Manchester City. He is the most outstanding player of the year.”
“In second place is Bellingham, who, like Vinicius, won the Champions League and La Liga titles and was also one of the best players at the Euro Cup. With his goals, England reached the final and won the runner-up position.”
