Vinícius Jr and as well as other Real Madrid’s other Ballon d’Or nominees will not attend the ceremony on Monday.
The decision follows news that Vinícius Jr will not be awarded as last season’s best player.
Originally, Real Madrid’s delegation was set to fly to Paris early in the afternoon but canceled upon learning of this outcome.
Also, Vinícius Jr scored 24 goals and provided 11 assists across 39 games,
These includes key goals in both the Champions League and La Liga, was widely viewed as a strong candidate for the Ballon d’Or.
However, the club expressed disappointment.
Also, they find it disrespectful that Vinícius jr , as well as teammate Dani Carvajal, were not recognised among the winners.
This prompts the decision to forgo the ceremony.
This update now places Spain’s Rodrigo Hernández of Manchester City as the primary contender for the Ballon d’Or.
The winner will be announced during the gala on Monday at 1:45 p.m. Mexico City time.
Real Madrid players Jude Bellingham, Fede Valverde, Antonio Rüdiger, and Toni Kroos were also nominated for the Ballon d’Or.
Also, the club has further representation in other categories, with Arda Güler competing for the Kopa Trophy, Andriy Lunin for best goalkeeper.
