Sunday Oliseh, the former coach of the Super Eagles, believes that Rodri, a midfielder for Manchester City, will win the Ballon d’Or in 2024.
Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid, who won both the La Liga and Champions League crowns, seem to be the favourites to take home the award.
But since the Euros and Copa America this summer, the conversation has shifted.
Spain won the European Championship with to strong performances from Rodri, and Argentina won the Copa America trophy for the second time under Lionel Messi’s leadership.
Oliseh reacted on social media to a post supporting Rodri for the Ballon d’Or prize by saying, “Do we need to say more? Rodri is in a class of his own”.
