“Finally, the Ballon d’Or was awarded not based on promotion in the press, but according to Rodri’s criteria” – Juran

Former Spartak Moscow footballer Sergei Yuran believes that the midfielder of Manchester City and the Spanish national team Rhodri deservedly received the Ballon d’Or.

On Monday, the 68th Ballon d’Or ceremony was held in Paris. Rodri won the trophy, ahead of Real Madrid striker Vinicius Junior in the voting.

— The footballer was appreciated for his work and really deserved it. This shows stability. Rodri can play even better, but he can’t play worse than his level. I don’t think Vinicius is number one. Yes, he is a world star, but there is no worse footballer. Ultimately, this was not determined by all the promotions through the press and television. They presented it in the way it should be given, according to all the criteria that Rodri has,” Yuran said as quoted by “Championship”.

Rhodri is 28 years old. In the 2023/24 season he won the English Championship, Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup with Manchester City, and with the Spanish national team he became European champion . Additionally, Rodri was recognized as the best player of Euro 2024.
