The much-anticipated Ballon d'Or ceremony is about to begin, and Brazil talent Vinicius, worth 200 million euros, is widely considered the final winner of this year's Ballon d'Or. However, things have taken a huge turn for the worse. On the evening of October 28, Beijing time, the latest news from the authoritative French media RMC Sports, the entourage is currently convinced that Vinicius will not win this year's Golden Globe Award.
Previously, many Spain media, including "Marca", "As" and other media reported that the 24-year-old Real Madrid striker Vinicius will win the Ballon d'Or, which will also be the second Brazil person to win the award after Kaka in 2007. However, according to the latest news from the French media, Vinicius has been promoted by the Spain media in recent weeks to win the Ballon d'Or, but he may be watching the award fall today.
Now even Real Madrid feels the same way, and everyone around them believes that the Brazil striker will not be crowned the 68th Ballon d'Or. In addition, Vinicius himself had similar thoughts and may have been absent from tonight's medal ceremony out of disappointment.
In addition to Vinicius, his Real Madrid team-mates Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe and Manchester City midfielder Rodri are also potential winners. Rodri, in particular, is widely regarded as Vinicius' biggest rival with his highlights last season at Manchester City and this summer's European Championship with Spain. If Vinicius misses out of the Ballon d'Or, Rodri is likely to be the eventual winner.
According to the arrangement, the Ballon d'Or ceremony will start at 3:45 a.m. on the 29th, and in addition to the men's Ballon d'Or, the Women's Ballon d'Or, the Kopa Award, the Yashin Award, the Socrates Award, the Gerd Müller Award, and the Coach and Club of the Year awards will also be awarded.
