At the end of 2024, we will know the identity of the player who will succeed Lionel Messi during the Ballon d’Or ceremony. Several players can still win the supreme title, like Jude Bellingham (20 years old) who is having a remarkable first year in the Real Madrid jersey. The Englishman, who will be expected with the Three Lions during Euro 2024, has his chances. This Monday, he won another trophy while perhaps waiting to win the Ballon d’Or.
Indeed, he was voted best revelation athlete of the year at the Laureus Trophies. Something to make him happy. “These last 24 hours have been wonderful, being here with so many wonderful athletes. It’s a pleasure, and winning something makes it even more special (…) My teammates are great, the staff is great. In addition, the supporters received me very well (…) I think that being a football star implies responsibility. It’s about being a good role model. I’m not perfect, but I want to be a good role model.” The winner of the 2023 Kopa Trophy finished by saying he was looking forward to playing the Euro.
