Dutch legend Clarence Seedorf says Real Madrid Brazilian star Vinicius being overlooked for the 2024 Ballon d’Or award is a shame.
“I think Vini deserves this award. It seems like there’s something going on between Real Madrid and UEFA that hasn’t been resolved,” Seedorf, who was at the ceremony, told TNT Sports Brasil.
“It’s a shame because I think these things have to be separated, particularly for a player who’s in a special moment. We’ll see. Let’s see what happens.”
Manchester City midfielder Rodri was named the men’s Ballon d’Or winner after the Spaniard enjoyed a brilliant season with club and country.
Vinícius finished second, ahead of his Madrid teammates Jude Bellingham and Dani Carvajal – who finished third and fourth respectively.
