Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has recently shared his thoughts on the Ballon d'Or debate in an interview with 'The Obi One Podcast'. The Italian coach highlighted several key players who he believes should be considered for the prestigious award.

Ancelotti started by praising the performances of his players: "It's true that Carvajal did very well, because he won the League, the Champions League, scored and won the Euros. But Vinicius is a talented player, young, with a good image, he won the League, he won the Champions League scoring in the final and the semi-final. He scored two goals in Munich. And Jude had a fantastic season. He won the Champions League, he won the League and was a big surprise. The best player of the league season. Rodri is also a fantastic midfielder, one of the best midfielders in the competition and consistent," explained Ancelotti.

However, Ancelotti was clear about his top choice: "In my opinion, I think Vinicius will be the winner of the Ballon d'Or this year," concluded the Real Madrid coach.

There are still just under three months left until October 28th to see if Vinicius Junior will be crowned the best footballer in the world in 2024.
