Oct 29, 2024, 08:33 PM Vinícius Júnior's Real Madrid and Brazil teammates have backed the star forward after he lost out to Manchester City's Rodri in the race to win the 2024 men's Ballon d'Or.

Vinícius, 24, had been widely expected to win the award on Monday, but finished second behind Rodri, with Jude Bellingham finishing third, Dani Carvajal fourth, and Erling Haaland fifth.

Real Madrid boycotted the ceremony organised by France Football and UEFA, with none of the club's nominees for the various prizes -- Vinícius, Bellingham, Carvajal, Kylian Mbappé, Antonio Rüdiger, Federico Valverde, Andriy Lunin, Arda Güler and coach Carlo Ancelotti -- or club officials attending the event in protest.
