Aguero’s Ballon D’Or Pick Has Been Revealed – And It’s Not Messi
Football fans are still buzzing with the announcement of the 2024 Ballon D’Or nominees, with several big names missing out this year. While there are plenty of candidates to discuss, one of them caught our attention – Rodri, the Manchester City midfielder. And guess what? Sergio Aguero thinks he’s the rightful winner!
Rodri Deserves It
In an exclusive interview, Aguero had no hesitation when asked about his pick for the prestigious award. "Rodri deserves it," the Argentine legend said, stating his case on social media. "A perfect year, you deserve it. Come on Rodri!" – a testament to their friendship and admiration for Rodri’s incredible 2024 campaign.
So, Why Rodri?
Rodri has quietly built a reputation as the world’s best holding midfielder since Sergio Busquets’s peak. Last season, he played a crucial role in Manchester City’s fourth consecutive Premier League title and was an integral part of Spain’s Euro 2024 winning team. He doesn’t put up massive goal and assist numbers, but his influence on the pitch is undeniable.
Rodri’s Competition
But how does Rodri’s game compare to other candidates like Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, and Kylian Mbappe? While all have had impressive seasons, it’s hard to deny the Spanish midfielder’s consistent performance over the past year.
