The club expected Vinicius Junior to win the award, but once it was revealed that he would not be victorious, they decided to boycott the ceremony in Paris.
Real may not have the 2024 winner in their first team at the moment, but they could have one in the near future. Rodri Hernandez received the award on Monday, and although he is happy at Manchester City, his contract situation is up in the air.
Rodri to Real?
Rodri sees his current contract expire in 2027, but according to Diario AS, he is slightly hesitant to commit to a new lease due to Man City’s looming FFP case against the Premier League. Real Madrid would monitor the situation, before possibly making a move.
Toni Kroos’ absence has been felt at Real Madrid in the opening weeks of this season, and Rodri is said to be someone desperately needed in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad. It remains to be seen whether the two will reunite in the coming years.
