Rodri Shares Heartfelt Moment with Carvajal After Ballon d’Or Win
Manchester City’s midfield maestro, Rodri, has revealed that the first person to congratulate him after his historic Ballon d’Or win was his Spanish teammate, Dani Carvajal.
Despite Real Madrid’s boycott of the ceremony due to Vinicius Junior’s unexpected loss, Carvajal reached out to Rodri to express his sincere congratulations.
“I talked to Carvajal, he deserved it too!” Rodri told Marca. “The first call I received when I left the gala was from him. He’s a player with whom I’m very close, even more so now with his injury. He’s a player who shares the same values as me, he congratulated me.”
