Rodri’s cash response to the Vinicius controversy

Rodri, crowned Ballon d’Or 2024 two weeks ago ahead of favorite Vinicius, defended himself against accusations of mocking the Brazilian winger during the celebrations. A video released by Manchester City, where he appeared to chant “Vinicius ciao, ciao, ciao”, sparked criticism, particularly from Real Madrid fans. The Spanish player reacted in the show Partizado de Cope, refuting any lack of respect.

Rodri denies lack of respect

“People need to understand that this is good sportsmanship, it was a private party. I didn’t disrespect anyone, it’s like another rivalry. I respect Vinicius,” he assured. Regarding the absence of Real Madrid representatives at the gala, Rodri downplayed: “No, not at all. Once I won it, it was to enjoy it with my family. I don’t think about those who weren’t there. Of course, it’s better if everyone comes, but it doesn’t affect me. » Finally, Rodri also spoke of his surprise at the noisy support for Vinicius when his victory was announced: “Half the room was shouting ‘Vinicius’, but I felt a lot of respect. They applauded me,” remembers the 2024 winner.
