The former Real Madrid goalkeeper said in the video shared on TikTok, via Bolavip, “It doesn’t seem logical, because if you have to give it to a Spaniard, then it should go to Carvajal.
“In that sense, Rodri has been injured for a month and a half. There’s just no criteria. There’s nothing that tells me you’re basing this on something.”
)
“And speaking of the Spaniards, I still don’t understand how it’s possible that for four years, from 2008 to 2012, no Spaniard won the Ballon d’Or, especially when we won the World Cup.
“There were players who could have won it. But not me, you know? This award seems absurd to me, to put it mildly.”
