Read our privacy policy Vinicius Junior took to social media to react after finishing second in the Ballon d’Or voting behind Manchester City’s Rodri - and rather than any kind of congratulations to the Spanish star, vowed to repeat his own campaign “ten times” over if he needed to, to earn recognition with the game’s top individual prize. That led to Real Madridopting against travelling with a delegation for the awards night, as is usually done, meaning even though they won in best men’s team, best coach and a shared award of the Gerd Muller trophy, nobody from the Santiago Bernabeu club was on hand to receive any awards, nor were any recorded messages sent in. Following the culmination of the ceremony, where Barcelona’s Aitana Bonmati won the Feminin award and Rodri claimed the men’s prize, Vinicius immediately posted on X “I'll do it 10 times if I have to. One of Vinicius’ teammate also posted on X, with Eduardo Camavinga claiming “football politics” saw the award erroneously handed to Rodri.
