Real Madrid has decided to boycott the 2024 Ballon d'Or ceremony in Paris, citing concerns over the selection process. The club has questioned the methods used to choose their striker Vinicius, who was nominated for the award, as well as another nominated player, Dani Carvajal.
It's not good that an institution like Real Madrid aren't at a gala like this. Everyone makes their own decisions but I'd like to see world and Spanish football represented. We have a responsibility to present ourselves in the best light.
As this was not the case, it is clear that Ballon d'Or-UEFA does not respect Real Madrid. And Real Madrid does not go where it is not respected.
If the award criteria doesn't give it to Vinicius as the winner, then those same criteria should point to Carvajal as the winner.
