Manchester City midfielder, Rodri has been named as winner of the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.
The Spain international won the award ahead of Real Madrid stars, Vinicius Junior, Dani Carvajal, Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe on Monday night in Paris, France.
The 28-year-old took home the 2024 Ballon d’Or after winning the Premier League title with Man City and Euro 2024 with Spain.
As a result, no Real Madrid representative attended the ceremony at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris as Vinicius, who was widely expected to win the Ballon d’Or, was snubbed.
Vinicius finished behind Rodri in the 2024 Ballon d’Or final rankings.
