On Monday, October 28, the 2024 Ballon d'Or ceremony will take place, with 30 footballers nominated, but it seems the outcome is already clear.
Details: According to The Athletic, the ceremony will unfold without surprises, as Real Madrid's Brazilian forward Vinícius Júnior is expected to be crowned the new Ballon d'Or winner.
His main competitors were previously considered to be Rodri, Dani Carvajal, and Jude Bellingham, but all are predicted to receive fewer votes.
Yesterday, Vinícius was the standout player in Real Madrid's thrilling 5-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund, securing a hat-trick in the match.
Reminder: Unlike in previous years, the 2024 Ballon d'Or winner will not give an interview to France Football before the ceremony, meaning Vinícius will learn about his victory when his name is revealed from the envelope.
