Controversy

edit

Despite winning Men’s club of the year and their manager Carlo Ancelotti winning the Men's Johan Cruyff trophy, Real Madrid boycotted the ceremony in protest at the anticipated winner of the Ballon d’Or not being Vinícius Júnior, who they thought deserved the award. Renowned media outlets like Marca, ESPN FC, and SPORTbible had already published that he was going to win this award through their sources, but Fabrizio Romano, a popular football journalist, confirmed at 1:56 AM on 29 October 2024 in his twitter, that "no one from Real Madrid [would] attend the Ballon d'or ceremony in Paris. No Ancelotti, no Bellingham, no Florentino Pérez… to support Vinicius Jr."[17][18]
