| Ballon d’Or 2024: Bellingham Surpasses Vinicius Jr as Favorite for Award |
Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has now emerged as the favorite to win this year’s Ballon d’Or, surpassing his teammate Vinicius Junior.
Both players have been considered the top contenders for the prestigious award.
Bellingham played a crucial role in Madrid’s LaLiga victory, while Vinicius was instrumental in their Champions League success.
According to Goal, Brazil’s early exit from the 2024 Copa America has shifted the consensus in favor of Bellingham, making him just one game away from securing the Ballon d’Or.
Although Bellingham’s performance dipped towards the end of the club season, and he has had a mixed showing at Euro 2024 despite scoring some key goals, an England victory over Spain on Sunday could clinch the award for the 21-year-old.
