Carlo Ancelotti in the press appearance prior to the clash against Real Sociedad, was questioned about the absence of Vinicius among the candidates for the FIFA The Best award.

“I saw him the other day and he was crying in the locker room. He cried for three or four hours. We couldn't stop him," the Italian said jokingly, wanting to make light of the fact that the Real Madrid star only appears among the candidates for the Ballon d'Or.

It is important to keep in mind that Vinicius had his greatest season last year since joining Real Madrid, as demonstrated by his 23 goals and 21 assists, one of which came in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals against Manchester City.
