Manchester City’s Rodri has made history by winning the 2024 Ballon d’Or, becoming the first Premier League player to do so since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008.
This prestigious award recognizes Rodri as the best footballer of the year, and it’s well-deserved considering his incredible achievements.
Rodri played a crucial role in Spain’s victorious Euro 2024 campaign, helping his team lift the trophy in July. He also secured multiple titles with Manchester City, including the Premier League, UEFA Super Cup, and Club World Cup.
His influence on both teams has been immense, and his vision and passing range have been key factors in their success.
Unfortunately, Rodri is currently out of action due to an ACL injury he suffered in September against Arsenal.
Despite this setback, his impressive performances earned him the Ballon d’Or, pipping Vinicius Junior of Real Madrid to the crown.
Rodri’s achievement marks a significant milestone for Manchester City, as he becomes the club’s inaugural Ballon d’Or winner.
His dedication and hard work have paid off, and this award is a testament to his exceptional talent and commitment to the sport.
