Real Madrid’s two best players are in a close race for the Ballon d’Or.

The Ballon d’Or 2024 will be a big deal in the world of sports.

Not Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo are favorites to win the prestigious prize for the first time in a long time. This is a big change for football around the world.

Karim Benzema and Luka Modric, both of Real Madrid, have won the Ballon d’Or twice in the last six years, but Messi and Ronaldo were still in the running.

But as the next Ballon d’Or event approaches, neither of these two players is a strong favorite. It’s a big change that starts a new era in the sport with this change.

Bellingham and Vinicius have a close ϝight.

A new report from AS (h/t Madrid Zone) says that Real Madrid players Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior could be in a close race for the Ballon d’Or.

These two players seem to be the only real chances to win the prestigious prize, since both have just won the Champions League.

It looked like Kylian Mbappe would win the award for a while. France was ƙnocked out of Euro 2024 and PSG were eliminated early from the Champions League, which doesn’t help his case.

Because of this, a lot of people thought Vinicius might win the Ballon d’Or. However, it looks like Bellingham will be a tough opponent for the Brazilian.

Recently, he led the Three Lions to the final of Euro 2024. He could be in with a chance to win the event, which would greatly improve his chances.

While this was going on, Vinicius couldn’t do much in the Copa America because Brazil was eliminated early.

So, everyone will be watching the Euro 2024 final, knowing that an England win could have a big effect on Bellingham’s future.
