close

Criticism of the Ballon d’Or is intensifying, particularly following recent events with Vinicius Junior and Real Madrid. France Football and UEFA have further damaged an already controversial award, even though the latest edition was seen as a significant milestone in football. Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has voiced his disapproval, expressing surprise at Rodri being awarded the Ballon d’Or.

In an interview with Adri Contreras, former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas criticized the Ballon d’Or, calling it “ridiculous” and questioning the selection criteria. He suggested that if Vinicius Junior didn’t win, the award should go to another Spanish player from Real Madrid, specifically mentioning Dani Carvajal.

Casillas expressed confusion over the absence of Spanish winners between 2008 and 2012 and stated that the award does not truly represent the best player, but rather reflects whims and interests. He urged footballers worldwide not to take the award seriously, labeling it as merely a marketing tool.
