After Rodri's Ballon d'Or victory, false comments from Alexander Ceferin circulated about Vinicius Jr. UEFA strongly denied this.
There is nothing better to fuel conspiracy theories. After the Ballon d'Or verdict, and Rodri's surprise victory over Vinicius Jr, comments from Alexander Ceferin circulated on social networks.
