Javier Tebas, president of La Liga , commented on Real Madrid ‘s controversial absence from the Ballon d’Or ceremony. The Merengues cancelled their trip to Paris after realising that Vinícius Júnior would not be the winner of the award.

“I am a Real Madrid fan . The important values ​​of this club are being a gentleman and giving a hand when you lose. I think Real Madrid lost that mentality some time ago. They should go to the ceremony and not question the France Football system, which is transparent, with the votes of 100 journalists. The victimization of Real Madrid makes no sense and is exaggerated. I don’t know where they are going. We also experience this lack of elegance in Spain,” he said, in an excerpt from an interview with L’Équipe .

Rodri , it should be remembered, ended up being the winner of the Ballon d’Or.
