The fact that Real Madrid doesn’t have the 2024 Ballon d’Or winner has made them very angry. The club thought Vinicius Junior would win the award, but when they found out he wouldn’t, they chose not to go to the ceremony in Paris.
The 2024 winner might not be on Real Madrid’s first team right now, but that could change soon. Hernandez won the award on Monday. He is happy at Manchester City, but his contract position is still uncertain.
Rodri’s current deal ends in 2027, but Diario AS says he isn’t sure if he wants to sign a new one because Man City will sue the Premier League for FFP. It is thought that Real Madrid is keeping an eye on things before they might make a move.
As the season started, Real Madrid missed Toni Kroos, and Carlo Ancelotti’s team needed Rodri very badly. It will be interesting to see if they get together in the next few years.
