Federico Valverde, a midfielder for Real Madrid, has stated that Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham, two of his teammates, should share the 2024 Ballon d’Or trophy.
Valverde, who gushed about how great both players were, joked that he would give Bellingham and Vinicius half of the Ballon d’Or.
The Uruguayan was asked who he believed should have won the golden ball during a live chat with fans on The Residency app.
Ballon d’Or to Vini Jr. or Bellingham? That was his simple response (via @MadridXtra on X). I’d divide it in half. They are both amazing.
