The former German midfielder Toni Kroos spoke about the Spaniard’s probable victory of the Ballon d’Or Rodri who would have beaten the madridista Vinicius Jr causing a controversy to erupt in Spain – and not only – so much so that Real Madrid did not show up at the ceremony taking place in Paris.
“Rodri will obviously win it, but I don’t think these prizes are that important. – explains the German – I believe in my heart of hearts that individual prizes in football have no meaning. They can be awarded in tennis, but not in this sport”.
