Big surprise for the 2024 winner
It’s the big day! This evening, we will know Lionel Messi’s successor on the Ballon d’Or winners. A historic evening for world football, especially as it is the first edition without Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi since 2003. A new king will therefore be crowned. Among the favorites are Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham and Rodri. If the newspaper Marca has been announcing the coronation of Vinicius Jr for several weeks, the latter will have to wait to hear his name. Because yes, the particularity of this edition is that for the first time, the winner of the most prestigious individual trophy has not been informed. Despite the numerous leaks, the secret of the big winner is therefore a priori well kept.
PSG walks on Real Madrid’s toes
In order to replace the seriously injured Carvajal, Real Madrid have made Trent Alexander-Arnold their priority. Except that according to the information from FilesPSG have already started discussions with the player and they are very advanced. If this idea comes to fruition, Achraf Hakimi could have some worries. A true reference to his position in Europe, the Englishman has been the delight of Liverpool since 2016. At the end of his contract next summer, TAA would represent a big blow for any European big name. This would still allow PSG to bring competition in the right lane where Hakimi seems very alone.
Red alert at Real Madrid
Real is in a tough situation after the 4-0 humiliation in the Clasico against Barça. A defeat which does not pass and plunges Real into crisis if we are to believe Mundo Deportivo. This humiliation called Florentino Pérez’s strategy into question. The president would have gone down to the locker room to shout. Carlo Ancelotti is also the first offender targeted by the Real boss. The trust between Perez and Ancelotti is broken. Management disagrees with him regarding the extension of Mendy, the insufficient playing time of Arda Guler and Endrick and his use of Jude Bellingham. The Merengue club is even considering the possibility of replacing the Italian at the end of the season if nothing works out. For this, management is accelerating the procedures for Xabi Alonso according to Sport. A clause in the Spaniard’s contract exists for him to leave Leverkusen on a free next summer.
