We know in detail the votes of the 100 France Football jurors who participated in the awarding of the 2024 Ballon d'Or. Like every year, there were surprising choices.
12 days after Rodri's coronation at the Théâtre du Chatelet, we now know more about the conditions of the Manchester City midfielder's victory. Friday evening, we learned that the Spaniard was only 41 points ahead of Vinicius Junior, the one everyone expected to take first place in the hierarchy this year. A minimal lead – 1170 points against 1129 – which brought the winner of the Premier League and the Euro into history to everyone's surprise and provoked the fury of Real Madrid, largely absent from the ceremony in Paris on the 28th. october. Since Saturday morning, we have known in detail the vote of the 100 France Football jurors.
Mbappé 1st for Ivory Coast, Nigeria favors Lookman
We thus learned that the French juror had placed Vinicius Jr in first place, like 34 other countries. Vincent Garcia, the editor-in-chief of FF, positioned the Brazilian striker ahead of Rodri, Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappé, Lamine Yamal, Harry Kane, Lautaro Martinez, Erling Haaland, Florian Wirtz and Phil Foden. In his Top 10, the Frenchman therefore did not place Dani Carvajal and Toni Kroos, 4th and 9th in the final ranking. The representative of the Ivory Coast would have awarded the prestigious trophy to Mbappé who he placed in 1st ahead of Vinicius Jr, Rodri, Bellingham and… Ademola Lookman, the Nigerian player from Atalanta Bergamo as Greece favored 2nd place and to whom Nigeria would have offered the trophy (1st ahead of Vinicius Jr. and Bellingham).
Lautaro Martinez winner for Trinidad and Tobago, Calhanoglu 3rd for Turkey
The Bahrain juror placed Mbappé in 2nd position behind Vinicius Jr. and in front of Haaland, like that of Bolivia, South Korea and Paraguay. For its part, Ecuador placed Kroos, retired after the Euro and the successful Liga-Champions League double with Real Madrid, at the very top of its ranking (Portugal, the Czech Republic and Uruguay have him placed 2nd). For the representative of Trinidad and Tobago, it was Lautaro Martinez who should have won the bet. Behind Rodri, Chile also opted for the striker, winner of Serie A with Inter Milan and the Copa America with Argentina. In the votes of the other jurors, note the 3rd place given to Granit Xhaka by the German juror, and the 3rd place of Hakan Calhanoglu for the representative of… Turkey, of course. Finland and Palestine placed William Saliba in 8th position, 10th for Iraq and Uzbekistan.
