Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr has responded boldly after missing out on the Ballon d’Or to Manchester City’s Rodri.
Following the award announcement, Vinicius took to social media platform X with a determined message: “I’ll do it 10x if I have to. They’re not ready,” a statement that quickly went viral.
Leading up to the ceremony, many expected Vinicius to be a strong contender for the award.
However, news surfaced on Monday that Vinicius and several Real Madrid teammates, along with head coach Carlo Ancelotti, would not attend the Paris event.
This decision reportedly came after learning of Rodri’s win.
Despite the outcome, Vinicius received an outpouring of support from his teammates, including Eduardo Camavinga, who expressed his disappointment in a passionate post.
The aftermath of this controversial Ballon d’Or ceremony is likely to continue, with Vinicius expected to make a statement on the field as Real Madrid faces Valencia on Saturday.
